Damage can be categorized into 3 types, melee, ranged and magic. Different armor types and consumables provide bonuses for different types of weapons. At tier 2, Armor will start to provide various set bonuses depending on the helmet variant used.

Damage is the amount of health points subtracted from an entity's current health. It can be inflicted by a multitude of entities, most prominently weapons, enemies, and NPCs (and all related projectiles). Furthermore, it can be caused by environmental hazards (such as thorny bushes, traps, or lava) and game mechanics (such as fall damage, drowning, or debuffs). Damage can generally only be inflicted on entities with a health statistic, i.e., players, most enemies, and NPCs. Most damage additionally inflicts knockback on the damaged entity.

Damage inflicted by player-wielded weapons is categorized into three different types: melee, ranged and magic. Accessories, buffs, and other damage-boosting or damage-decreasing effects often only affect one of these damage types. A few weapons as well as all other damaging entities are not categorized into any of the five types. Starting from Tier 2, Armor will start to provide various set bonuses depending on the helmet variant used, including damage based effects.
