Common & Uncommon Status · Guides

This guide comes from the old wiki and is being reviewed; some details may be out of date. The Codex always shows the current game data.

Introduction

While you are playing on the server, you may see some particular effects. They belong to two types of status:

Common Status
Uncommon Status

Common Status list

Damage over Time

Note: the Poison / Venom / Deep Poison / Burning / Toxin status effects were changed in order to make them viable.

If you kill a monster using DoT damage, items will not be autolooted and benedictions will never appear if you are not within 36 cells of the monster. 36 cells is approximately 2 screens.

Note that the success rate of inflicting DoTs is affected by the LUK of both the target and the caster:

Caster's LUK will increase the chance to inflict the status effect to a target by 0.2% per point of LUK.
Target's LUK will increase the chance to resist to the status effect by 0.2% per point of LUK.

All the effects listed below affect all DoT effects:

All DoTs deal damage every second.
DoT ticks can be critical, and critical ticks add 50% damage ignoring all race resistances.
DoTs like Venom, Poison, Deep Poison, Bleeding, Burning and Toxin can't last less than 7 seconds.
Every DoT with a duration exceeding 10 seconds has a duration of 10 seconds plus 33% of the surplus duration.

The effects listed below only affect the Venom / Poison / Deep Poison / Burning DoT effects (Toxin is a special case):

The portion of the formula affected by the target's statistics can reduce the damage received by up to 50%.
DoT damage is increased based on the target's HP: each 100 HP of the target increases damage by 0.1%, up to a 200% damage bonus if the target has at least 200 000 HP.
DoTs can now kill affected targets.

An entity affected by a DoT can't be more than 24 cells away from the caster, otherwise the DoT damage received by the target is nullified. 24 cells is around a whole screen while playing.

Details

Poison

Damage formula

[2 * (Caster's LUK + Caster's DEX + Caster's BaseLV) - 1.5 * (Target's LUK + Target's VIT + Target's BaseLV)] + Caster's HIT Bonus

VIT of the target will increase the resistance to this effect.

Deadly Poison

Damage formula

2 * [2 * (Caster's LUK + Caster's DEX + Caster's BaseLV) - 1.5 * (Target's LUK + Target's VIT + Target's BaseLV)] + Caster's HIT Bonus

VIT of the target will increase the resistance to this effect.

Damage formula

2 * (Caster's LUK + Caster's INT + Caster's BaseLV) - 1.5 * (Target's LUK + Target's AGI + Target's BaseLV) + Caster's HIT Bonus

Mdef of the target will increase the resistance to this effect.

Bleeding

Damage formula

2 * (Caster's LUK + Caster's STR + Caster's BaseLV) - 1.5 * (Target's LUK + Target's STR + Target's BaseLV) + Caster's HIT Bonus

VIT of the target will increase the resistance to this effect.

Venom

Poison DoT inflicted by the skill Throw Venom Knife inflicts Venom instead of the basic Poison.

Specificities of Venom:
- It can be stacked up to 4 times; each new stack refreshes the status duration.
- Venom counts other DoTs as an additional stack for its damage calculation: a target affected by 4 stacks of Venom and also by Burning counts as a 5-stack target.
- Venom damage formula is based on the formula above, however it is weaker at the start and stronger as stacks increase.
  - The overall damage formula is (50 + 25 * StacksAmount)% of DoT's damage.

Number of stacks	Damage compared to Poison DoT
1	75%
2	100%
3	125%
4	150%
5	175%
6	200%
