Fury

Fury Buff

Fury is a status effect in Remixed Dungeon that significantly increases damage output but prevents natural healing.

Description

When a character with the Berserker subclass drops below 40% of their maximum health (while still having some HP), they automatically enter a state of fury. This buff doubles their attack damage and gives their eyes a bloody red appearance.

Mechanics

  • Damage Bonus: Attack damage is doubled (multiplied by 2) via attackProc() method
  • Healing Prevention: Natural healing from Dewdrops, Resting, and Regeneration is prevented
  • Visual Indicator: The character's eyes become blood red (CharSprite.NEGATIVE status)
  • Trigger: Automatically applied when health drops below 40% maximum (LEVEL = 0.4f) while still having HP
  • Deactivation: Wears off when health rises above 40% maximum (checked in act() method)
  • Duration: Continuous buff that checks target HP every 10 ticks (TICK * 10)
  • Buff Icon: Uses BuffIndicator.FURY icon

Affected By

  • Berserker - The Warrior subclass that automatically gains this effect when health is low

Counters

  • Healing items like Potions of Healing still work while under the effect
  • Health restoration through other means (like certain items or abilities) will cause the buff to expire

Strategy

  • Leverage the damage bonus by engaging enemies when in fury state
  • Be cautious of the healing prevention - plan ahead if you need to retreat
  • Try to maintain lower health (but not too low) to stay in fury state for extended combat
  • Use healing potions when the fury state ends to restore health safely
