Ignite

Elemental Ailment Threshold is the defensive comparison value used when Elemental Hits try to apply Ignite, Chill, Freeze, Shock, or Electrocution. A higher threshold makes those ailments harder to apply and reduces Freeze and Electrocution Buildup received.

A Hit is an instantaneous damage event. Any damage that is not damage over time is Hit damage, whether it comes from an Attack, a Spell, Thorns, or another effect.

Ailments are damage-type-related debuffs: Bleeding, Ignite, Chill, Freeze, Shock, Electrocute, and Poison. Some deal damage over time, while others impair the target.

Damage contribution decides which parts of a Hit are counted for one named Ailment chance, buildup, or Magnitude calculation. It does not convert the Hit or change the damage types it deals.

Magnitude is the numeric strength of a Buff or Debuff. It changes the values that effect applies, such as damage per second, a Slow percentage, increased damage taken, or Ignite chance.

Spreading an Ailment creates a new matching Ailment on another target from the same source. Target-history and source restrictions prevent the spread from looping indefinitely.

Aggravated is a persistent state on an individual Bleeding or Ignite Debuff. It makes that Ailment instance deal 100% extra damage until the instance expires.

Elemental Damage is the collective name for Fire, Cold, and Lightning Damage. A modifier to Elemental Damage can scale all three types, but each part is still mitigated by its matching Resistance and keeps its own ailment rules.

Fire Damage is one of the five damage types. Fire Hits apply Flammability, which supplies chance to Ignite, while Fire Resistance mitigates Fire Hits and Fire damage over time separately.

A Payoff skill gains a powerful extra effect when it Hits an enemy affected by a specified Debuff. It often Consumes that Debuff, and it cannot inflict the same Debuff that enables its Payoff effect.

Fire Resistance reduces Fire damage taken. It is tracked independently from the other damage-type Resistances, has a default maximum of 75%, and can have a different uncapped value from the value currently used for mitigation.

Detonator is a Skill tag for Skills that can trigger flammable gas, Oil, Grenades, lodged explosives, and similar effects when the Skill reaches them. The target effect defines what is consumed or activated and what the resulting explosion, Ignite, volley, or secondary effect does.

Flammability is a stackable Debuff that builds from contributing damage and determines the chance for Hits to Ignite. It is not itself an Ailment, and its magnitude is separate from the magnitude of the resulting Ignite.

Exposure is a Debuff that lowers one or more of the target's Resistances. It changes the target's actual resistance, can reduce it below zero, and can improve both Hit and non-Hit damage that uses the affected resistance.

Ignited Ground repeatedly applies Flammability to enemies standing on it and Ignites them when total Flammability reaches 50%. Its default duration is 4 seconds and its default radius is 2 metres.

Aggravating any Bleeding is a trigger condition that succeeds only when a Hit with the specified weapon directly changes at least one existing Bleeding Debuff from not Aggravated to Aggravated.

Decimating Strike makes a Hit against a Full Life enemy remove a random 5% to 30% of its Life immediately before the Hit's damage is applied. It is granted by the Witchhunter notable Judge, Jury, and Executioner and by Aerisvane's Wings.

Overkill damage is the part of a killing Hit that exceeds the enemy's remaining Life. It is a measured amount used by effects such as Herald of Ash and Trampletoe, not an automatic bonus applied to every kill.
