HamsterCore

Combat in HamsterCore is built on elements. Physical elements are Impact, Puncture and Slash, and basic elements are Heat, Cold, Electricity and Toxin. Impact causes staggering, Puncture weakens enemy output, and Slash causes continuous bleeding. Cold slows or freezes, Electricity stuns or paralyzes, Heat reduces armor and Toxin penetrates shields. Each element has its own trigger mechanism and status effects stack in layers.

Two basic elements combine into composite elements. Heat with Cold creates a delayed area explosion that clears groups of enemies. Electricity with Toxin corrodes armor, stripping up to 80 percent. Heat with Toxin forms a toxic cloud that deals damage over time, Cold with Electricity counters shielded units, and Heat with Electricity makes enemies attack indiscriminately. The mod also includes factions such as Grineer, Infested, Corpus, Orokin and Sentient, and assigns each vanilla or modded mob to a faction with its own weakness relationships.

Players can combine elements freely through the mod configuration. Combinations in the top-left take priority over those in the bottom-right, and the applied effect is the last one in order. The file requires Placebo and Apothic Attributes as prerequisites.
