Wounding
From DDO wiki
[edit] Wounding
- Prefix
- Base price modifier: 3
- Only found on: Piercing, Slashing
Effect: 1 point of constitution damage for any attack which overcomes DR
This weapon effect can be found on magical weapons which do the piercing and slashing damage types. The effect only occurs if the base damage after the targets DR has been taken into account is at least 1 point of physical damage.
For example, if you attacked a creature with some DR and after the DR is taken into account, one did no damage, but second did 3 damage then only the second attack would have the wounding effect apply.
Sneak attack damage is considered as normal damage when calculating whether the wounding effect takes effect.
Notes:
- Red named monsters can only take up to a maximum of 10 points of constituion damage.
- Purple named bosses are entirely immune to this effect.
- Stat damaging weapons such as these are favoured in melee combat as monsters tend to have less constitution than they do hit points, and thus tend to die quicker when attacked using these kinds of weapons.
Examples:
- +1 Wounding Longsword (minimum level: 6, with no race requirement)
- +1 Wounding Rapier of Pure Good (minimum level: 8)
- +1 Wounding Rapier of Puncturing (minimum level: 10, was considered a very rare and powerful weapon back when 0 constituon meant death... No longer the case.)
