What the Damage Boost Trait Does
Flat damage increase (15-50%). Activates only when Damage Boost-carrying ores hit 30% of your total forge composition.
Best Use Cases
Any build, but especially DPS-focused. Beyond this, the trait shines whenever consistent activation matters more than raw multiplier.
Ores That Carry Damage Boost
The following ores carry the Damage Boost trait natively:
- Obsidian — 2.05x mult, rare rarity, World 2
- Diamond — 2.85x mult, epic rarity, World 2
- Void Ore — 4.9x mult, legendary rarity, World 3
- Peak Ore — 9.0x mult, celestial rarity, The Peak
- Embercite — 5.6x mult, divine rarity, World 4
