For example, Hellfire (heat damage) and Cryo Rounds (cold damage) combine together to create the secondary Blast damage. Secondary elements are created by equipping an even number of elemental mods with differing damage types. Which brings us to… Secondary Elemental Damage If you equip multiple, different elemental mods on a single item they will combine into different damage types. Can cause a poison effect.īut that’s not all. There are four primary elements in Warframe: Cold, Electricity, Heat, and Toxin. You can add elemental damage types on top of a weapon’s physical attributes with mods. While physical damage is typically (but not always) determined by the weapon you’re using, elemental damage is almost entirely (but not always) determined by the user. Physical damage can also be amplified by mods such as Serration. They also have a chance to generate different status effects. Impact is generally strong against shields, Puncture against armor, and Slash against flesh. Impact (represented by a hammer icon), Puncture (a needle through a circle), and Slash (shown as an arc) are the primary physical damage types you’re dealing with.Įach has its own strengths and weaknesses associated with it. Most weapons have one of - or some combination of - three physical damage types. This means the enemy isn’t taking damage at all. The only time you really need to worry, though, is if you’re seeing gray. Likewise “overshields” are always purple. And when damaging shields, the numbers will always be blue.
Orange and red indicate even stronger “super critical” hits that are only possible when your weapon has a greater than 100 percent crit chance. Default attacks are white while critical hits are yellow. These are color coded based on how successful the attack was.
When you deal damage to enemies, you’ll notice numbers spewing out of them. Most enemies also have both vulnerabilities and resistances - even within the same faction.īut before we break down the different Warframe damage types, and how to understand that aspect of the system, let’s first talk about the numbers that Warframe displays. The amount of damage you do to a given enemy depends on the type of physical damage you’re dealing, what kind of elemental mods you have equipped, if those combine into more powerful elements, and much more.
Damage in Warframe is pretty complicated… just like the rest of the game.
