Convert Thunder Resistance Skill Effect

Skill Effects Per Level

Convert Thunder Resistance Skill
Increase to your weapon's elemental attack proportional to your thunder resistance.
Level Effect
1 Activates the skill effect.

Increases Thunder Attack Based on Thunder Resistance

As the name implies, Convert Thunder Resistance provides additional Thunder attack based on your current thunder resistance. The more thunder resistance you have, the higher the bonus you get.

It's important to note that if your thunder resistance is negative, you will not receive a Thunder attack penalty. Also keep in mind the element attack cap, as it can easily be reached with the right setup. The limit is either 350 more than the base element of the weapon or 1.9x of the base element, whichever is larger. Simplified, a base of 390 element or higher will use the 1.9x multiplier as the limit.

Weapon Type Dictates The Bonus Amount

5 Per Thunder Resistance

The bonus elemental attack that you get per Thunder resistance is based on your weapon type.

As it is not possible to check the elemental attack of the Light Bowgun and Heavy Bowgun, a test was instead done to check the additional damage that you deal. Using the two base 200 Raw attack Lagiacrus bowguns, you receive a damage increase of around 0.3 per 5 Thunder resistance.
