Gas Damage

Gas Damage is one of the six secondary elemental damage types, composed of Heat and Toxin elements. It is particularly effective against light Infested types, but deals lower damage to Corpus and Grineer bodies.

Status EffectsEdit

Gas damage's status effect is Toxin Cloud, which produces small toxin cloud that deals Toxin damage (notably not Gas damage) to all enemies within its 3-meter radius. The cloud deals immediate damage on proc equal to Base Damage × (Toxin Mod Multiplier ÷ 2), then itself procs  Toxin status, dealing 9 ticks of damage over 8 seconds each equal to Base Damage × (Toxin Mod Multiplier ÷ 2)². Multiple instances of the effect can stack on the same target with each instance having its own timer.

Because the Gas proc is strengthened by Toxin Damage,  Toxin mods also help to increase proc damage; in contrast,  Heat mods will merely increase the proc bias toward Gas without increasing the procs' damage. If a proc occurs together with a headshot, stealth bonus, and/or critical hit, the ticks are also affected by their respective multipliers. The Toxin Cloud 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). However, innate Toxin damage from weapons such as the Paracyst does not contribute to the damage-over-time ticks. It should also be noted that due to the nature of Faction damage mods, their bonuses are applied thrice during the calculation of Toxin Cloud damage per tick. For example, the Toxin Cloud damage per tick of a weapon with an innate 100 damage,  Serration,  Infected Clip, and  Bane of Grineer will be:

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

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

Toxin Cloud Damage per tick = 344.5 × (2.47 ÷ 2)^2 = 525.44

Because the damage from this status effect is Toxin and not Gas, it can bypass Shields/Proto Shields and deal increased damage against Flesh and Ferrite Armor enemies, which can help compensate for Gas's damage penalty against Corpus Flesh and Grineer Cloned Flesh.

Although effective against light Infested units, the status effect's Toxin damage is reduced against Fossilized units. In addition, a Toxic Ancient produces an aura to its allies that provides 100% damage reduction to Toxin and 80% damage reduction to Gas, neutralizing this element against the Infested while the aura is in effect.

AbilitiesEdit

	ENERGY 25 KEY 4	Danse Macabre Erupt with a multitude of Eidolon energy beams and sweep a circle of death around Revenant. The beams will modify their Damage Type to target select defenses, while incoming damage is redirected back into the beams. Hold fire to boost Status Effects and Damage, at the cost of increased energy consumption. Thralls killed by this leave overshield pickups. Energy Drain: 20 s-1 Boosted Energy Drain: 40 s-1	Strength:500 / 750 / 1,000 / 1,250 (damage / s) 1,000 / 1,500 / 2,000 / 2,500 (boosted damage / s)
			Duration:N/A
			Range:0.03 / 0.05 / 0.08 / 0.1 m (beam radius) 0.05 / 0.1 / 0.15 / 0.2 m (boosted beam radius)
			Misc:9 (number of beams) 100 m (sweep area) 1 rev/sec (rotation speed) 20% (status chance) 40% (boosted status chance) 50 (overshield points per pickup)

Info

• Revenant unleashes the might of the Eidolon essence emanating from his left arm, dispersing the Sentient energy into 9 energy beams as he levitates and spins counterclockwise. Energy beams oscillate in angle vertically as Revenant rotates, rapidly sweeping across a 100 meter radius area with rotation speed 1 rev/sec in a pentagonal shape. Each energy beam has a thickness of 0.03 / 0.05 / 0.08 / 0.1 meter radius and continuously inflicts 500 / 750 / 1,000 / 1,250 damage per second with a 20% status chance to all enemies caught in its path.
  • Damage per second is affected by Ability Strength.
  • Beam radius is affected by Ability Range.
  • Casting speed is affected by  Natural Talent and  Speed Drift.
  • Rotation speed is unaffected by mods.
  • Number of energy beams and sweep area are not affected by mods.
  • Energy beams possess innate Punch Through, allowing them to bypass terrain and obstacles in the environment.
  • Energy beams cannot hit enemies standing above Revenant's left arm due to the oscillation pattern.
  • While active, all damage received by Revenant is stored into a total damage pool, then gradually transferred to each energy beam as additional damage per second.
  • Damage stored is tracked by the buff icon beside the shield and health bars.
  • Revenant is able to move with reduced movement speed while channeling Danse Macabre. Speed the same as Revenant's running speed (without sprint) and affected only by Hobbled Dragon Key.
• Holding the fire button (default LMB ) increases the beams' damage per second to 1,000 / 1,500 / 2,000 / 2,500, status chance to 40%, and beam radius to 0.05 / 0.1 / 0.15 / 0.2 meters, while also increasing energy drain to 40 energy per second.
  • Boosted damage per second is affected by Ability Strength.
  • Boosted beam radius is affected by Ability Range.
  • Boosted energy drain is affected by both Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
• Energy beams autonomously adapt their damage type to the attributes of the enemies they hit: Corrosive against armored enemies, Magnetic against shielded enemies, and Gas against enemies with infested flesh.
  • Corrosive status effect permanently reduces a target's current armor by 25%.
  • Magnetic status effect reduces a target's current and maximum shields by 75% for 4 seconds.
  • Gas status effect spawns a toxic cloud that deals Toxin damage and procs a Toxin status to enemies who stand in it.
• Danse Macabre consumes 20 energy per second while active and will remain active until Revenant's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
  • Activation energy cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, and the energy drain is affected by Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
  • Revenant cannot replenish energy using Energy Vampire, Rift Plane's innate energy regeneration, Squad Energy Restores,  Energy Siphon, or Energizing Dash while Danse Macabre is active.
  • Danse Macabre's energy drain is not converted into shields by Augur Mods.
  • Energy can be replenished by Energy Orbs, Arcane Energize, Orokin Void Death Orb energy restores,  Rage, and/or  Hunter Adrenaline while the ability is active.
• Ability Synergy:
  • Enthralled enemies killed by this ability drop a unique pickup that grants 50 Overshields when collected by Revenant or his allies.
  • Energy pillars explode to inflict damage radially when struck by Danse Macabre lasers.
  • Damage reflected by Mesmer Skin also accumulates into Danse Macabre's energy beam damage pool.
  • Reave has 50% reduced energy cost and can be cancelled at any time during Danse Macabre. Casting speed becomes instantaneous and allows limited steering with the movement keys during the dash.
• Revenant cannot cast Enthrall or Mesmer Skin, perform parkour Maneuvers or general interactions while channeling this ability.
• Revenant is immune to knockdown while channeling this ability.
• Casting Danse Macabre is a full body animation that interrupts grounded movement and other actions.
• Revenant visually extends his left arm outward and his right arm upward, as he hovers and rotates in place. Energy beams are generated and spread throughout his left arm, while droplets and gaseous energy particles emit from both hands. When the fire button is held, a surge of Sentient energy resembling Enthrall's energy pillars continuously erupt skyward from beneath Revenant's feet.
• Energy beams, energy particles, and energy surge color tinting are affected by Revenant's chosen Warframe energy color.

Only on enemies with infested flesh.
