There are the three primary damage types in Dragonfire. Each is enhanced by different dragon stats and interacts uniquely with abilities and effects.

• PHYSICAL DAMAGE: Strength-based damage dealt through Command and Habits abilities. Enhanced by the attacker's Strength and mitigated by the target's Instinct.
• TACTICAL DAMAGE: Instinct-based damage dealt. Enhanced by the attacker's Instinct and mitigated by the target's Intelligence.
• FIRE DAMAGE: Intelligence-based damage dealt. Enhanced by the attacker's Intelligence and mitigated by the target's Initiative.

Positive effects enhance your dragon or allies combat performance.

• FIRST-STRIKE: Enables the dragon to act before all other combatants each round.
• DOUBLE-STRIKE: Grants the target a second Basic Attack each round.
• RECOVERY: Healing effect that restores troops over time.
• ADVANTAGE: Increases Damage Dealt.
• RESISTANCE: Reduces Damage Received.
• EVADE: Causes each instance of damage against the target to have a chance to be ignored.
• PROTECT: Splits damage dealt to the target between the target and the dragon that applied Protect.
• REFLECT: Causes each instance of the specified damage against the target to have a chance to be split between the target and the source of the attack.
• CLEANSE: Removes negative effects for Ally or removes positive effects for Enemy.

Negative effects debilitate enemy dragon, reducing their combat effectiveness.

• BLEED: Deals Physical Damage to the target each round for 2 rounds.
• PANIC: Deals Tactical Damage to the target each round.
• BURN: Deals Fire Damage to the target each round.
• SLOW: Causes the target to attack after all other combatant each round.
• WEAKENED: Reduces Damage Dealt.
• VULNERABLE: Increases Damage Received.
• TAUNT: Forces the target to launch their Basic Attack against this dragon.
• PREY: Modify the target's Recovery Received.

Control effects restrict enemy actions and are crucial for battlefield control.

• STUN: Prevents the target from taking actions to activating Command and Habits, or launching Basic Attack on their turn.
• OVERWHELM: Prevents the target from using Commands and Habits on their turn..
• STAGGER: Prevents the target from using Attack Modifier Commands or launching Basic Attack on their turn.
• CONFUSION: Causes the target to have a 50% chance to mistake Allies for Enemies and vice versa each time they activate a Command or Habits or launch a Basic Attack on their turn.

Certain dragons feature unique abilities tied to their skills that don't belong to the standard effect categories. Some stack with each activation — as stacks accumulate, the effect intensifies until reaching its maximum threshold — while others introduce their own mechanics.
