Pierce resistance

From Calamity Mod Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Pierce resistance is a mechanic that makes certain bosses and boss servants resistant to piercing projectiles. This system is primarily used by bosses with multiple segments, but is also present on some bosses with large hitboxes that may cause projectiles to hit multiple times. The final damage of piercing projectiles is reduced by 12% for each time the projectile has already pierced, up to a maximum of 80% reduced damage.
