Fire damage is one of the five Damage TypesDamageTypes . It is reduced by Fire ResistanceElemental Resistances . Fire Hits inflict FlammabilityFlammability based on how much Fire damage is dealt, which provides a chance to IgniteIgnited .Limit
Certain skills can only have a limited number of effects active at once. If a new effect is created while at the maximum number of effects, the oldest effect will dissapear. Certain support gems and items can modify skill effect limits.Runes
Runes are AugmentsAugment of Kalguuran origin and make.Hit Damage
Any damage that isn't damage over time is Hit damage. Damaging AilmentsDamaging Ailments which result from a Hit will calculate their damage from that Hit, and will not subsequently have Damage modifiers applied directly to them. As a result of this, raising Hit Damage will result in more powerful Damaging AilmentsDamaging Ailments innately.Flammability
Flammability is a DebuffDebuffs that provides the chance for Hits to IgniteIgnited the target. It is not itself an Ailment , but is closely associated with IgniteIgnited , which is. Fire damageFire Damage from Hits ContributesContributes to the Magnitude of Flammability, so Hits that deal more Fire damageFire Damage will IgniteIgnited more often. The base Magnitude of Flammability is 1% chance to IgniteIgnited the target for every 5% of the target's Ailment ThresholdAilment Threshold dealt as Fire damageFire Damage. Flammability from a HitHit Damage is applied before that hit checks whether it should IgniteIgnited the target, and so will affect that chance for that HitHit Damage to IgniteIgnited . Since chance for Hits to IgniteIgnited comes from Flammability on the target, modifiers which increase the chance to inflict Ailments will increase the Magnitude of Flammability inflicted. Effects which do not HitHit Damage targets, but IgniteIgnited as if they had, such as IgnitedIgnited Ground , also inflict Flammability, but do not roll a random chance to IgniteIgnited . Such effects will only IgniteIgnited once the total Flammability on the target reaches 50%. Multiple instances of Flammability stack, raising the chance for Hits to IgniteIgnited the target up to 100%. Each instance of Flammability has its own independent duration, lasting 8 seconds by default.Physical Damage

CriticalCritical Hit Chance Weakness causes hits against affected targets to have +0.5% to Critical Hit ChanceCritical Hit Chance, and can stack up to 20 times. If not otherwise specified, each stack lasts for 4 seconds.Stun
Hits against any target can potentially cause a Stun on that target, depending on the damage dealt. Stunning a target interrupts their current action and prevents them from taking actions for a short time. There are two types of Stun: Light Stuns last a fraction of a second but can be inflicted frequently. Any HitHit Damage has a chance to cause a Light Stun . The chance is based on the damage dealt, up to 100% base chance for Hits that deal 100% of the target's maximum Life. Chances lower than 15% are treated as 0%. Heavy StunsHeavy Stunned occur when a target's Stun bar is filled and last multiple seconds. Hits cause Heavy StunHeavy Stunned buildup based on the damage dealt. Players and their MinionsMinions usually cannot be Heavily Stunned , but players can receive Heavy StunHeavy Stunned buildup where specifically mentioned while taking specific actions (such as raising their ShieldShield , Parrying with a Buckler , or riding a mount). Player Physical damagePhysical Damage and MeleeMelee Damage each have 50% more Light Stun chance and Heavy StunHeavy Stunned buildup. These bonuses are multiplicative with each other. Monster Physical damagePhysical Damage and MeleeMelee Damage have 100% more and 33% more Light Stun chance and Heavy StunHeavy Stunned buildup respectively. These bonuses are multiplicative with each other.Ignited
Ignite is an Ailment that deals Fire damageFire Damage over time, and lasts for 4 seconds by default. The chance for a HitHit Damage to Ignite a target is determined by the total Magnitude of FlammabilityFlammability on the target, including the amount added by that HitHit Damage . Fire damageFire Damage from Hits ContributesContributes to the Magnitude of Ignite, so Hits dealing more Fire damageFire Damage inflict stronger Ignites. The base Magnitude of Ignite is Fire damageFire Damage per second equal to 20% of the Fire damageFire Damage dealt by the HitHit Damage that inflicted it. This is calculated using the final damage dealt by the HitHit Damage , but not any modifiers on the target that affect how much damage they will take from the HitHit Damage . This Magnitude is not further affected by any modifiers to the damage you deal. Modifiers and DebuffsDebuffs that affect the enemy's ability to mitigate damage (such as ShockShocking ) can affect the damage the enemy takes from Ignite, but any such modifiers that specifically apply to Hit damageHit Damage (such as Penetration ) do not affect Ignite damage.Chilled Ground
Chilled Ground ChillsChill those standing in it, and lasts 6 seconds by default.Flasks
Flasks can be used to recover your Life or Mana. Flasks are not consumable, but require charges to use. Flask charges can be regained by killing enemies. Normal enemies grant Flask charges equal to half their PowerPower Magic enemies grant Flask charges equal to their PowerPower Rare and UniqueRare and Unique enemies grant Flask charges equal to twice their PowerPower Checkpoints and Wells completely refill Flasks when activated. Flasks can only hold charges while in a Flask slot.Cold Damage

Chill is an Ailment that SlowsSlowed the afflicted target, and lasts 2 seconds on players or 8 seconds on non-players by default. Chill Magnitude depends on the Chilling damage dealt relative to the target's Elemental AilmentElemental Ailment Threshold , with a minimum of 30% and a default maximum of 50%. Cold damageCold Damage from Hits can Chill by default, and does not require a chance to inflict Chill. However, Chills smaller than 30% will be ignored, so small Hits can fail to Chill.Freezing
Freeze is an Ailment that causes targets to be unable to move or act, and lasts 4 seconds by default. Cold damageCold Damage from Hits ContributesContributes to Freeze Buildup on enemies until they become Frozen .Immobilisation
A target is immobilised if it cannot move, for example due to being Frozen , PinnedPinned , Heavy StunnedHeavy Stunned , or Electrocuted .Projectiles
A Projectile is a moving AttackAttacks or SpellSpells that usually impacts with targets when it hits them. When a group of multiple Projectiles is fired from the same source at the same time, only one Projectile in the group can hit each target unless otherwise specified.Recently
Recently refers to the past 4 seconds.Attacks
Attacks are skills that directly damage enemies, usually using your equipped Martial Weapon . SpellsSpells are not Attacks. The base damage, attack speed and critical hit chance of an attack are determined using your Martial Weapon 's stats unless the skill says otherwise. Attacks do not necessarily deal Physical damagePhysical Damage — they can deal any damage type.Exposure
Exposure is a type of DebuffDebuffs that lowers the affected enemy's Total Ele.ResElemental Resistances . By default it lowers ResistancesElemental Resistances by -20% and lasts for 4 seconds, though some sources of exposure can override these values. Like most sources of lowering ResistancesElemental Resistances , this can cause the enemy's ResistanceElemental Resistances to become negative. Higher RarityRare and Unique enemies are less affected by Exposure: 15% less Exposure effect on Magic monsters 30% less Exposure effect on Rare monsters 50% less Exposure effect on Unique monstersExposure

Buffs are effects that boost a player or monster's stats for a duration or while a condition is met. Unless otherwise stated, Buffs of the same type do not stack — only the copy with the strongest effect applies.Energy Shield Recharge Rate
