Chaos damage

From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Chaos damage is a damage type inflicted by all wands and staves linked to Mesmer attributes, as well as all crafted, all collector, some unique, and all PvP wands and staves linked to the Energy Storage attribute and Decade Rod "Antipode Alloy".

Only one dervish form can change a weapon's damage type to chaos. There's currently no skill that inflicts direct chaos damage.

Characteristics[edit]

  • Chaos damage is not armor-ignoring; it is non-physical, non-elemental damage which uses the normal damage calculations.

Notes[edit]

  • According to the developers, nothing in the game currently checks for chaos damage, making chaos damage functionally identical to dark damage.
