Shock

Status: Shock

All Status Effects Stun Poison Fire Freeze Shock Curse Sleep

Shock is a status condition that will, at random intervals, cause the victim to spasm, interrupting anything the victim was doing. Enemies will only be interrupted if shock damages them while telegraphing: if they are already in the attack animation, it won't be stopped. Attacks that can shock deal a portion of elemental damage; damage taken from shock status can only be reduced by shock-resistant armor. Damage dealt to enemies from shock is considered elemental damage.

A unique characteristic of shock is that when the victim receives damage from shock, everything in a small radius around the target will also be hit. This can break blocks, hurt other enemies or allies, and potentially spread the status.
