Battle card abilities

From ThresholdRPG Wiki

These are the available, proc-able skills which the game understands. These can all be cast upon either self, any random target on team (same or enemy, depending on whether it is positive or negative), low_health (find target on team with lowest_health), low_level (find target on team with lowest level), last card to attack this one, high_health (find target on team with highest health), high_level (find target on team with highest level). Obviously, in the case of a 1v1, all of these will only impact 1 card, that being the attacking card or the target card.

Swing

The basic attack form is called a swing. This is the general, round-to-round combat action that is not a special ability. Think of it as when you are merely swinging your weapon in combat but not producing any special effects.

Negative Abilities

Negative abilities (DoT, Status, Debuff, etc) also deliver damage in addition to applying their effects. This damage relies on the Attack Power stat. If the team resists the effect, it also resists the damage.

Resisting

If a special attack misses, the cooldown is reduced by 1.

Criticals

Every time damage is applied, with the exception of periodic damage, has a chance to crit via the Critical Chance stat. If successfully criticaled, the damage is increased based on the Critical Power stat.
