Electricity Damage

Electricity Damage is one of the four primary elemental damage types. It performs well against Grineer Machinery and Corpus Robotics, but is mitigated by the Alloy Armor worn by many high-level Grineer units.

Status EffectsEdit

Electricity damage's status effect is Tesla Chain, which sends an electrical surge dealing damage equal to Base Damage × (Electricity Mod Multiplier ÷ 2) as Electricity to all enemies within a 3-meter radius. If a proc occurs together with a headshot, stealth bonus, and/or critical hit, the damage is also affected by their respective multipliers. The Tesla Chain is able to hit heads and other body parts by itself, potentially allowing headshots' bonus to apply twice (which also affects the added headshot damage of some sniper rifles' zoom bonuses and  Target Acquired). It should also be noted that due to the nature of Faction damage mods, their bonuses are applied twice during the calculation of Tesla Chain damage. For example, the Tesla Chain damage of a weapon with an innate 100 damage,  Serration,  Stormbringer, and  Bane of Grineer will be:

Base Damage = 100 × (1 + 1.65) × (1 + 0.3) = 344.5

Electricity Mod Multiplier = (1 + 0.9) × (1 + 0.3) = 2.47x

Tesla Chain Damage = 344.5 × (2.47 ÷ 2) = 425.458

Shocked enemies will also be standing up stunned, exposing them from cover and preventing them from attacking for about 3 seconds (though Ospreys, Bosses, and Tenno are immune to this). Note that only the original target will be stunned, and others around it will only take damage. The target will have electricity running through their body over the duration, which disappears after 6 seconds.

Elemental CombinationsEdit

Electricity damage mods can be combined with other elemental mods to create a new elemental damage type.

• Electricity + Heat = Radiation
• Electricity + Cold = Magnetic
• Electricity + Toxin = Corrosive
