Activates Ravage if Depleted

Chaos Zero Nightmare - Tenacity Bar
Tenacity is the yellow bar below the enemy health that lowers after each played attack cards targeted to them. Once the entire bar is depleted, the enemy will go to a state called Ravage for a turn and will refill the tenacity bar back to full next turn.

Ravage Info and Effects

Each AP of Single-Target Attack Cards Deal 1/3 Tenacity Damage

Chaos Zero Nightmare - Normal Tenacity Damage
Each enemy has a certain amount of tenacity bar below their health. When you deal damage to the enemies you lower their tenacity bar based on the cost of the card. For example, a 3-cost attack card will remove 1 tenacity bar from the enemy.

If your character attribute matches the enemy, it is considered as Attack Weakness and will deal a full bar of tenacity to the enemy per AP. For example, if a 2 AP void card hits an enemy that is weak to void damage then it will reduce 2 bars of tenacity.

Attack Weakness Info and Effects

0 AP Attack Cards Deal 1/6 Tenacity Damage

Chaos Zero Nightmare - 0 Cost Tenacity Damage
0 AP attack cards deal 1/6 tenacity damage to the enemies. Attack cards not played on the hand will be considered a 0-cost card regardless of its previous cost.

For example, if you have this equipment called Multifaceted Parallel Universe Nexus and a 2 AP attack card with a Lead keyword. If it gets activated by the equipment, the tenacity damage will be considered as a 0 AP card.

AoE Attack Cards Deal Half Tenacity Damage Based on Its Cost

Chaos Zero Nightmare - AoE Tenacity Damage
Attack cards that can target all enemies will have its tenacity damage halved based on its cost. For example, Kayron's Brand of Annihiliation is a 3 AP AoE attack card however, it will only deal 1/2 tenacity damage to all enemies.

Critical Strikes Does Not Increase Tenacity Damage

Critical strikes deals increased damage based on your critical damage however, it does not affect tenacity damage.
