Your Ship’s weapon type determines your basic attack damage type:
e.g. Omni ([[Dominator]]) removes 5% of your shield on hit.
e.g. Unstable Calibrator ([[Gear]]) sacrifices armor and shield to reset all skill cooldowns.


Projectile Ships → Basic attack becomes Standard Damage
- Each [[Ship]]’s weapon type determines your basic attack damage type:


Missile Ships → Basic attack becomes Piercing Damage
*Projectile [[Ships]] - Standard Damage.


Corrosive Ships → Basic attack becomes Elemental Damage
*Missile [[Ships]] - Piercing Damage.


Note: Gear abilities retain their own damage type (e.g. Solar Igniter always deals Elemental Damage).
*Corrosive [[Ships]] - Elemental Damage.


AOE Target Limit
Note: [[Gear]] abilities retain their own damage type (e.g. [[Solar Igniter]] always deals Elemental Damage, regardless of your [[Ship]] type).


AOE attacks now hit a limited number of targets.
==Critical System==
- All damage types can now critically hit.


Basic attack: 1 target (default)
- Base Critical Chance: 5%


AOE skills: 3 targets (default)
- Base Critical Multiplier: 100%


Increase this limit through Gears, Troopers, or the Tech Tree.
==AOE Target Limit==
- Basic attack: 1 target (default)


Summoned or converted units do not share your AOE target limit.
- AOE skills: 3 targets (default)
However, Duchess DunVella gives summoned/converted allies +30% All Resistance, +300% Damage, hits 3 additional targets, and makes them immune to Burn.


Critical System
- You can increase these limits through [[Gears]], [[Troopers]], or the [[Tech Tree]].


All damage types can now critically hit.
Note: Summoned or converted units have their own target limit. Only Duchess DunVella [[Trooper]] increases their hit targets (and grants other buffs).


Base Critical Chance: 5%
==Defensive Mechanics==
===Armor and Shield===
- Shield absorbs damage before armor.


Base Critical Multiplier: 100%
- While you have shield remaining, you take 30% less damage.


Evade
- Armor: When it reaches 0, your [[Ship]] is defeated.


Evade works on attacks that deal Standard Damage.
- Piercing and Irresistible Damage bypass shield and hit armor directly.


Maximum Evade Chance: 75%.
===Resistances===
- Each damage type has its own resistance (Standard / Piercing / Elemental).


Resistances
- Maximum Resistance: 75%.


Each resistance applies only to its matching damage type.
- Resistance can be reduced or go negative due to enemy effects (e.g. Immunizer [[Dominator]]), making you take more damage.


Maximum Resistance: 75%.
- The Agwar [[Ship]] Galaxy can increase the maximum resistance cap beyond 75%.


Resistance can go negative, causing you to take extra damage.
===Evade===
(Some enemies, such as Dominators, can reduce your resistance.)
- Evade only works on attacks that deal Standard Damage.


Burn Effect
- Maximum Evade Chance: 75%.
 
Base Burn Damage: 20.
 
Enemy Burn Damage: 20 + (2 × Tier Number).
 
Irresistible Damage
 
This special damage type ignores all resistances, shields, and Aegis protection.
Examples include:
 
Omni (Dominator): Removes 5% of your Shield when hit.
 
Death Marker (Gear): Sacrifices part of your Armor and Shield to instantly defeat an enemy.
 
Nanoburst (Gear): Instantly removes a percentage of enemies’ Shields.
 
Unstable Calibrator (Gear): Sacrifices part of your Armor and Shield to reset all skill cooldowns.
 
Common Questions
 
Q: Do minions or summons share my AOE limit?
No. Their attacks are separate. Only Duchess DunVella increases their target count.
 
Q: Why does my resistance show a negative value?
Some enemies, such as Dominators, can apply debuffs that reduce your resistance below 0%, making you take more damage.
 
Q: Do ships and gears share damage type?
No. Ships affect your basic attack, while Gears always use their own fixed damage type shown in their description.

Introduction

This page explains how battle damage, defense and effects work in Outlaw Troopers.

Damage Types

- There are four types of damage in Encounters:

  • Piercing Damage - Ignores shield and damages armor directly.
  • Elemental Damage - Damages shield before armor and has a 35% chance to burn enemies.
  • Irresistible Damage - Cannot be resisted or blocked (even by Aegis).

e.g. Omni (Dominator) removes 5% of your shield on hit.

e.g. Unstable Calibrator (Gear) sacrifices armor and shield to reset all skill cooldowns.

- Each Ship’s weapon type determines your basic attack damage type:

  • Projectile Ships - Standard Damage.
  • Missile Ships - Piercing Damage.
  • Corrosive Ships - Elemental Damage.

Note: Gear abilities retain their own damage type (e.g. Solar Igniter always deals Elemental Damage, regardless of your Ship type).

- All damage types can now critically hit.

- Base Critical Chance: 5%

- Base Critical Multiplier: 100%

AOE Target Limit

- Basic attack: 1 target (default)

- Armor: When it reaches 0, your Ship is defeated.

- Piercing and Irresistible Damage bypass shield and hit armor directly.

Resistances

- Each damage type has its own resistance (Standard / Piercing / Elemental).

- Maximum Resistance: 75%.
