Weapons and skills in Gunfire Reborn revolve around three elements: Fire, Lightning and Corrosion. These elements will proc status effects on enemies that can then lead to advanced fusion effects that can cause enemies to do all kinds of neat things, such as attack other enemies instead of the player.
Let’s first take a look at how the elements work, what they do and then some tips on how to use them to up your game in Gunfire Reborn.
Each damage type can cause a specific status state on an enemy:
Fire (HP) -> Burning
Lightning (Shield) -> Shock
Corrosion (Armor) -> Decay
If you have multiple status effects, they will cause additional status effects:
Burning & Shock -> Manipulation
Burning & Decay -> Explosion / Combustion
Shock & Decay -> Miasma
Burning: Damage over Time
Shock: 10% more damage
Decay: 50% less movement speed
Manipulation: The enemy either quits attacking or attacks another enemy instead of you.
Explosion / Combustion: This happens once burn and decay occur, it’s a single AoE explosion around the enemy.
Miasma: Damage over Time (more than burning)
Immobile / Freeze: A special state caused by energy orbs that “pauses” an enemy. Can’t be used during certain attacks. Can block certain boss attacks.
Stagger: An interrupt caused by a plethora of skills and weapons (heavy weapons/swords).
Bleeding: Bloody Drill causes a damage over time that deals “True” damage.
Slow / Decelerate: Similar to Decay but only occurs in challenge events.
The base character, Crown Prince, has a skill “Smoke Grenade” that when mixed with elemental weapons can basically inflict every status effect on an enemy at once. While Li has the ability to do burning, the Crown Prince does corrosion which is very strong starting in the Anxi Desert.
Really the biggest thing is to keep mixing and matching. Make sure to have an elemental weapon and use your skills! Focus on corrosion / decay. The slow is important in kiting enemies and the armor damage is critical starting in the desert. Beyond that, you may want to focus only on one element in the case of say Li where stacking all fire synergizes with the ascension abilities.
