Combo

Combo is a status effect in Remixed Dungeon that tracks consecutive successful hits by the Gladiator subclass and increases damage.

The Combo effect tracks consecutive successful hits by the Gladiator subclass. After 3 successful consecutive hits, each additional hit increases damage by 20% per hit. The combo is broken if a hit misses or if the Gladiator takes damage.

• Hit Counter: Tracks the number of consecutive successful hits
• Activation Threshold: Damage bonus starts after 3 successful hits (count >= 3)
• Damage Bonus: After 3 hits, damage multiplier is (count - 2) / 5f (e.g., 4th hit = 20% more damage, 5th hit = 40% more, etc.)
• Duration: Duration is calculated as 1.41f - count / 10f after reaching 3+ hits
• Reset: Combo resets after missing a hit or taking damage

• Hits 1-2: No damage bonus (returns 0 additional damage)
• Hit 3: First damage bonus hit
• Hit 4+: Damage bonus of (hit number - 2) / 5f
  • 4th hit: (4-2)/5 = 0.4 or 40% more damage
  • 5th hit: (5-2)/5 = 0.6 or 60% more damage
• The damage bonus is calculated as: damage * (count - 2) / 5f

• The Combo effect validates the Mastery Combo badge when reaching 3+ hits
• Achievement: Badges.validateMasteryCombo(count) is called when combo conditions are met

• For Gladiators: Maintain as many consecutive hits as possible to maximize damage
• The effect expires automatically with time, so act quickly to build up the combo
• Avoid taking damage or missing attacks when trying to build a high combo
• The combo effect is lost if the Gladiator takes any damage
