Status Effects
Introduction
Status Effects cause a change in the condition of affected Units, Turrets and Buildings over a specified amount of time.
These changes may be one or more of the following :
- Causing Time Released Damage
- Causing Enhanced Damage from all subsequent hits.
- Hindering the Performance of one or more functions.
- Preventing the Performance of one or more functions.
- Altering the Last Stand Defenders of Buildings
- Adding Last Stand Units to Vehicles
Causes of Status Effects
Status Effects are be caused by :
- Various Missiles, Units and Turrets there were specifically designed to deliver one of the six (6) Status Effects.
- Customized Units that inherently don't cause Status Effects may be modified to do so though the use Schematics.
Application of Status Effects
Status Effects Weapons may apply their effects to the Target in one or both the following ways :
- Direct Hit - Any Target being Directly Hit or Splashed by a Status Effect Weapon will have the effect applied to it.
- Area of Effect (AoE) - Applies the Status Effect over a wide area of ground. Any vulnerable Targets passing over that area while the effect is active will have the effect applied to it.
Size ( Duration / Intensity ) of Status Effects
The SIZE of the Status Effect determines the Duration, Intensity or Both of the Damage being applied to the Target and is specific to the individual Status Effect.
- There are 5 Sizes : Tiny, Small, Medium, Large and Giant.
- Duration - The length of time the Effect is Active.
- Duration for Effects that cause Damage refers to a continuous and constant amount of Damage is being done over the time the Effect is active. All Sizes do the same amount of Damage over identical lengths of time.
- Duration for Effects that do not cause Damage refers just to the length of time the Target will suffer the affect.
- Intensity - The Rate at which Damage is applied to the Target.
- The larger the Size of the Effect the more Damage will be applied to the Targer over the time the Effect is active.
The effect of the Size depends on the specific Status Effect that it is referring to. ( See Descriptions Below ).

Additional Info

- A Target may be affected by Multiple Status Effects at one time. For instance a Mega Tank may have Shock, Corrosion and Napalm applied to it simultaneously.
- Multiple strikes from weapons causing the same Status Effects do not "Stack" in terms of the Damage done. However multiple units causing the same Status Effect can be used to help keep the target under the effects without interruption by continuously resetting the duration clock.
- Preserver and Lead Preserver's Flat Armour made the Napalm Effect causing no damage
- i.e. Napalm Effect cannot cause actual damage to the infantry, though an icon will still appear
Trivia
