Nova Damage

Nova Damage

> Game rules

Nova damage was introduced in update 2.09 with the Mysterious Electrisor, then in update 2.11 with the Alteration chip and finally in update 2.21 with the Disintegration chip.

The operation is similar to Erosion. Only the target's maximum hit points are affected, up to the target's current hit point limit.

Example: The target is at 950pv / 1000pv max, I inflict 100 nova damage on it, it will increase to 950pv / 950pv max (we cannot go below the target's current pv, so it is useless if the target is at 100% HP).

Nova damage is amplified by science. The formula for calculating final damage is Final nova damage = min(max hp - current hp, base nova damage * (1 + science / 100))
