Plasma Damage refers to damage when an enemy has a buildup of Plasma energy in its body that will explode over a short period of time. A machine afflicted with Plasma Damage will have purple energy coating it. This will display a gauge on the machine. When this expires, the machine will explode.
Several enemy machines will be vulnerable to Plasma Damage, and knowing which enemies are weak against which elements is the key to survival. Whenever you approach a new enemy, be sure to scan them before engaging in combat. This will give you the info you need to put yourself at an advantage.
Use Plasma Arrows when aiming at Glowblast Canisters and Plasma Cells to trigger Chain Reactions. Alternatively, you can shoot an enemy directly if it is vulnerable to Plasma damage. Once the buildup is enough, it will cause an explosion.
These machines have components which are especially vulnerable to Plasma Damage and can trigger a chain reaction if hit with the right type of Ammo.
