Health loss

From Guild Wars Wiki

Health loss is the decrease of health. Health loss can be caused by seven different mechanics:

• Damage.
• Health degeneration.
• Sacrifice.
• Life stealing.
• Health decrease due to a decrease in maximum Health.
• The loss of all health due to an instant death effect.
• Direct health loss which does not fit into any of the above categories.

[edit] Direct health loss

Often health loss is used to refer specifically to this final category of health loss. When a skill's description refers to health loss, this is the type of health loss it refers to. The following skills cause direct health loss.
