Dark damage

From GuildWiki

[edit] Properties:

• Dark damage is a damage type caused by Necromancer and Ritualist weapons only.
• Dark damage does not ignore armor, but there are no upgrades that provide extra defenses specifically against it.

[edit] Caused by

• Necromancer Staves:
  • Cruel Staff
  • Wicked Staff
  • Accursed Staff
  • Ghial's Staff
• Necromancer Wands:
  • Truncheon
• Ritualist Staves
  • Communing Staff
  • Alem's Remedy
  • Tormented Staff (restoration magic)
• Ritualist Wands:
  • Ritualist Wand
• Mesmer Wand:
  • Mallyx's Whim

[edit] Notes

• Dark damage is not considered elemental damage, and therefore is not affected by skills such as Winter or Ward Against Elements.
• Although it is not affected by any specific armor type, it is affected by non-typed armor, so, for example, a Warrior will still take less damage from it than a Monk would.
