Floating Damage Text

On a successful hit, a line of text and icons will appear above your target describing the hit you just did. Each type of damage dealt is shown as " -number icon". The number is the amount of damage dealt, and the icon indicates the type. The same information can be found in textual form in the combat log.



The icons represent the various damage types dealt by the attack. They include:


 * Physical damage
 * [[File:slashing damage.jpg]] slashing
 * [[File:piercing damage.jpg]] piercing
 * [[File:bludgeoning damage.jpg]] bludgeoning
 * Elemental damage
 * [[File:acid damage.jpg]] acid
 * [[File:cold damage.jpg]] cold
 * [[File:electrical damage.jpg]] electrical
 * [[File:fire damage.jpg]] fire
 * [[File:sonic damage.jpg]] sonic
 * [[File:force damage.jpg]] force
 * [[File:light damage.jpg]] light
 * [[File:dark damage.jpg]] dark
 * Special effects
 * [[File:banish damage.jpg]] banish

If the attack has already dealt enough damage to kill the target, a skull will be shown instead.



Vulnerability, Resistance and Immunity
The colour of the damage number changes if the target resists or is vulnerable to that damage type.


 * Orange numbers show normal damage.
 * Purple numbers show extra damage.
 * Yellow numbers show reduced damage.
 * Green numbers indicate target healing.

If the target is immune to some or all of your damage, "immune" will appear instead of a number.
