== Help File ==
+
== Introduction ==
 +
 
 +
RPG Maker MZ does not have many options for damage mitigation. There are
 +
only raw defensive parameters, elemental rates, and direct damage modifiers.
 +
This plugin introduces six categories of Anti-Damage Barriers made in the
 +
form of states to allow you to create more ways for the player's party to
 +
defend themselves with.
 +
 
 +
Features include all (but not limited to) the following:
 +
 
 +
* Cancellation Barriers that can block out damage entirely if the damage is above or below a certain threshold.
 +
* Nullification Barriers that block out damage entirely, but have a limited amount of times they can block damage for.
 +
* Reduction Barriers that can stack additively with one another to provide percentile reduction values.
 +
* Absorption Barriers which contain an exact number of points of damage that they can soak up.
 +
* MP Barriers that disperses a percentage of the damage towards a battler's MP pool as long as they have enough MP.
 +
* TP Barriers that function similarly to MP Barriers except they disperse the damage dealt instead to the TP pool.
 +
* The ability to set barriers to block specific types of damage ranging from all, certain hits, physical hits, magical hits, and even elemental hits.
 +
* Skill and trait effects that can bypass barriers.
 +
* Make certain barrier types fragile and will break upon receiving specific types of damage (elemental, physical, magical, etc).
 +
* Nullification and Absorption Barriers can regenerate themselves and/or decay over time.
 +
* Playing specific animations whenever barriers tank a hit or break.
 +
 
 +
== Requirements ==
 +
 
 +
This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations
 +
of RPG Maker.

{{MZ Tier 3}}
 +
 
 +
== How Barriers Work ==
 +
 
 +
When an action successfully hits an actor, damage is calculated. Barriers do
 +
not block damage that comes directly from event commands, plugin commands,
 +
script calls, percentile HP action effects, or damage over time states.
 +
 
 +
Instead, they must come directly from a damage formula source. Before that
 +
damage is applied to a battler, the following series of events happen:
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== HP Damage Check ===
 +
 
 +
Check to see if the action is dealing HP damage. This does not apply for MP
 +
or TP damage. If no HP damage is being dealt, ignore the rest.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== State Breakers ===
 +
 
 +
Some states can have the unique trait of dispersing upon receiving specific
 +
kinds of damage using the notetags from this plugin. These range from
 +
breaking under any kind of damage, certain hit damage, physical damage,
 +
magical magical, and elemental damage. If the damage to be dealt is
 +
affiliated with any of the listed and the state is vulnerable to that kind
 +
of damage, immediately destroy the state before the damage calculations are
 +
made. This will affect any of the states remaining.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Barrier Ignore ===
 +
 
 +
Check if the action itself (skill or item), if the attacking battler, or if
 +
the defending battler has any notetags that would cause them to ignore any
 +
barrier effects. If there are, ignore the rest.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Cancellation Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
Check for any Cancellation Barriers. Cancellation Barriers come in two
 +
different types: Over and Under. The value listed for a Cancel Over Barrier
 +
will cancel damage equal to or over a specific amount. The reverse is true
 +
for a Cancel Under Barrier as it will cancel damage equal to or under a
 +
specific amount. If damage is blocked here, it is blocked entirely and the
 +
rest of the steps do not need any calculations made.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Nullification Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
Next, check for any Nullification Barriers. These Barriers have a charge to
 +
them displayed separate from their turn count. Any matching damage dealt
 +
while a Nullification Barrier is active will be reduced entirely to 0 at the
 +
cost of one of the Nullification Barrier's charges. If the Nullification
 +
Barrier's charges reach 0, that state is automatically removed. If damage
 +
is blocked here, it is blocked entirely and the rest of the steps do not
 +
need any calculations made.
 +
 
 +
If a battler has multiple Nullification Barriers, then charges will be
 +
removed from Nullification Barriers with the least amount of turns remaining
 +
to the ones with the most amount of turns remaining (or indefinite). If two
 +
Nullification Barriers have an equal amount of turns remaining, then the
 +
charge will be deducted from the one with the higher priority. If both
 +
priorities are the same, then the charge will be deducted will be the one
 +
with a lower database ID.
 +
 
 +
Renewing a Nullification Barrier's state will recalculate its charge count.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step ===
 +
 
 +
Here, the Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step takes effect. This means any of the
 +
<JS Pre-Damage> and related notetags will take effect and any damage
 +
modifications made from them will be carried forward.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Reduction Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
After applying the Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step, the Reduction Barriers
 +
will have their turn. Reduction Barriers can stack with each other and they
 +
stack additively. This means if you have a Reduction Barrier state worth
 +
10% and another one that is worth 20% on the same battler, then a total of
 +
30% damage will be reduced. If damage reaches zero, skip the remaining
 +
Barrier calculations.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Absorption Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
Absorption Barrier states have a set value that they can absorb. This value
 +
can be a static number or it can be calculated by a formula. The barrier
 +
value an Absorption Barrier has will trade damage 1 for 1. Once the
 +
Absorption Barrier reaches 0, it will automatically remove itself. If damage
 +
reaches zero, skip the remaining Barrier calculations.
 +
 
 +
If there is 500 incoming damage and an Absorption Barrier of 100 is present,
 +
then 400 damage will go through and the Absorption Barrier is reduced to 0,
 +
thus removing itself.
 +
 
 +
If there is 100 incoming damage and an Absorption Barrier of 500 is present,
 +
then 0 damage will go through and the Absorption Barrier is reduced to 400.
 +
The Absorption Barrier will remain.
 +
 
 +
If a battler has multiple Absorption Barriers, then barriers will be removed
 +
from Absorption Barriers with the least amount of turns remaining to the
 +
ones with the most amount of turns remaining (or indefinite). If two
 +
Absorption Barriers have an equal amount of turns remaining, then the
 +
barriers deducted from the one with the higher priority. If both priorities
 +
are the same, then the barrier deducted from will be the one with a lower
 +
database ID.
 +
 
 +
Renewing an Absorption Barrier's state will recalculate its barrier count.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== MP-Dispersion Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
If any MP-Dispersion Barriers are present, then it's time for them to take
 +
effect. MP Barriers can block a percentage of the damage using MP, trading
 +
off 1 for 1. If an MP Barrier has a value of 20%, then 20% of the damage
 +
will be redirected to MP (or less if there's insufficient MP). If a battler
 +
runs out of MP after this step, the MP-Dispersion Barrier will automatically
 +
remove itself. If damage reaches zero, skip the remaining Barrier
 +
calculations.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== TP-Dispersion Barriers ===
 +
 
 +
If any TP-Dispersion Barriers are present, then it's time for them to take
 +
effect. TP Barriers can block a percentage of the damage using TP, trading
 +
off 1 for 1. If a TP Barrier has a value of 20%, then 20% of the damage
 +
will be redirected to TP (or less if there's insufficient TP). If a battler
 +
runs out of TP after this step, the TP-Dispersion Barrier will automatically
 +
remove itself.
 +
 
 +
Some battlers might gain TP upon being hit. This gained TP does not apply
 +
to the TP-Dispersion Barrier as it is generated after being hit.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
=== Final Damage ===
 +
 
 +
After a long, long journey, any remaining damage will be dealt to the target
 +
battler (unless there's other plugins affecting damage further).
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +

 +
 
 +

 +
notetags will not work with your game if this plugin is OFF or not present.

 +
---
 +
 
 +
<Ignore Barriers as User>
 +
 
 +
- Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags
 +
- If an attacker with this notetag on any of its trait objects attacks a
 +
  target with barriers, ignore the target's barriers.
 +
 
 +
---
 +
 
 +
<Ignore Barriers as Target>
 +
 
 +
- Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags

- Used for: State Notetags
 +
- If an attack hits a battler with this state and state's notetag, as long
 +
  as the damage type matches, automatically remove the state.

 +
  - 'All' for all damage types.
 +
  - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 +
  - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 +

Introduction

RPG Maker MZ does not have many options for damage mitigation. There are only raw defensive parameters, elemental rates, and direct damage modifiers. This plugin introduces six categories of Anti-Damage Barriers made in the form of states to allow you to create more ways for the player's party to defend themselves with.

Features include all (but not limited to) the following:

  • Cancellation Barriers that can block out damage entirely if the damage is above or below a certain threshold.
  • Nullification Barriers that block out damage entirely, but have a limited amount of times they can block damage for.
  • Reduction Barriers that can stack additively with one another to provide percentile reduction values.
  • Absorption Barriers which contain an exact number of points of damage that they can soak up.
  • MP Barriers that disperses a percentage of the damage towards a battler's MP pool as long as they have enough MP.
  • TP Barriers that function similarly to MP Barriers except they disperse the damage dealt instead to the TP pool.
  • The ability to set barriers to block specific types of damage ranging from all, certain hits, physical hits, magical hits, and even elemental hits.
  • Skill and trait effects that can bypass barriers.
  • Make certain barrier types fragile and will break upon receiving specific types of damage (elemental, physical, magical, etc).
  • Nullification and Absorption Barriers can regenerate themselves and/or decay over time.
  • Playing specific animations whenever barriers tank a hit or break.

Requirements

This plugin is made for RPG Maker MZ. This will not work in other iterations of RPG Maker.

Required Plugin List

This plugin requires the above listed plugins to be installed inside your game's Plugin Manager list in order to work. You cannot start your game with this plugin enabled without the listed plugins.


Tier 3

This plugin is a Tier 3 plugin. Place it under other plugins of lower tier value on your Plugin Manager list (ie: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

This is to ensure that your plugins will have the best compatibility with the rest of the VisuStella MZ Plugin library.


How Barriers Work

When an action successfully hits an actor, damage is calculated. Barriers do not block damage that comes directly from event commands, plugin commands, script calls, percentile HP action effects, or damage over time states.

Instead, they must come directly from a damage formula source. Before that damage is applied to a battler, the following series of events happen:

---

HP Damage Check

Check to see if the action is dealing HP damage. This does not apply for MP or TP damage. If no HP damage is being dealt, ignore the rest.

---

State Breakers

Some states can have the unique trait of dispersing upon receiving specific kinds of damage using the notetags from this plugin. These range from breaking under any kind of damage, certain hit damage, physical damage, magical magical, and elemental damage. If the damage to be dealt is affiliated with any of the listed and the state is vulnerable to that kind of damage, immediately destroy the state before the damage calculations are made. This will affect any of the states remaining.

---

Barrier Ignore

Check if the action itself (skill or item), if the attacking battler, or if the defending battler has any notetags that would cause them to ignore any barrier effects. If there are, ignore the rest.

---

Cancellation Barriers

Check for any Cancellation Barriers. Cancellation Barriers come in two different types: Over and Under. The value listed for a Cancel Over Barrier will cancel damage equal to or over a specific amount. The reverse is true for a Cancel Under Barrier as it will cancel damage equal to or under a specific amount. If damage is blocked here, it is blocked entirely and the rest of the steps do not need any calculations made.

---

Nullification Barriers

Next, check for any Nullification Barriers. These Barriers have a charge to them displayed separate from their turn count. Any matching damage dealt while a Nullification Barrier is active will be reduced entirely to 0 at the cost of one of the Nullification Barrier's charges. If the Nullification Barrier's charges reach 0, that state is automatically removed. If damage is blocked here, it is blocked entirely and the rest of the steps do not need any calculations made.

If a battler has multiple Nullification Barriers, then charges will be removed from Nullification Barriers with the least amount of turns remaining to the ones with the most amount of turns remaining (or indefinite). If two Nullification Barriers have an equal amount of turns remaining, then the charge will be deducted from the one with the higher priority. If both priorities are the same, then the charge will be deducted will be the one with a lower database ID.

Renewing a Nullification Barrier's state will recalculate its charge count.

---

Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step

Here, the Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step takes effect. This means any of the <JS Pre-Damage> and related notetags will take effect and any damage modifications made from them will be carried forward.

---

Reduction Barriers

After applying the Battle Core's Pre-Damage Step, the Reduction Barriers will have their turn. Reduction Barriers can stack with each other and they stack additively. This means if you have a Reduction Barrier state worth 10% and another one that is worth 20% on the same battler, then a total of 30% damage will be reduced. If damage reaches zero, skip the remaining Barrier calculations.

---

Absorption Barriers

Absorption Barrier states have a set value that they can absorb. This value can be a static number or it can be calculated by a formula. The barrier value an Absorption Barrier has will trade damage 1 for 1. Once the Absorption Barrier reaches 0, it will automatically remove itself. If damage reaches zero, skip the remaining Barrier calculations.

If there is 500 incoming damage and an Absorption Barrier of 100 is present, then 400 damage will go through and the Absorption Barrier is reduced to 0, thus removing itself.

If there is 100 incoming damage and an Absorption Barrier of 500 is present, then 0 damage will go through and the Absorption Barrier is reduced to 400. The Absorption Barrier will remain.

If a battler has multiple Absorption Barriers, then barriers will be removed from Absorption Barriers with the least amount of turns remaining to the ones with the most amount of turns remaining (or indefinite). If two Absorption Barriers have an equal amount of turns remaining, then the barriers deducted from the one with the higher priority. If both priorities are the same, then the barrier deducted from will be the one with a lower database ID.

Renewing an Absorption Barrier's state will recalculate its barrier count.

---

MP-Dispersion Barriers

If any MP-Dispersion Barriers are present, then it's time for them to take effect. MP Barriers can block a percentage of the damage using MP, trading off 1 for 1. If an MP Barrier has a value of 20%, then 20% of the damage will be redirected to MP (or less if there's insufficient MP). If a battler runs out of MP after this step, the MP-Dispersion Barrier will automatically remove itself. If damage reaches zero, skip the remaining Barrier calculations.

---

TP-Dispersion Barriers

If any TP-Dispersion Barriers are present, then it's time for them to take effect. TP Barriers can block a percentage of the damage using TP, trading off 1 for 1. If a TP Barrier has a value of 20%, then 20% of the damage will be redirected to TP (or less if there's insufficient TP). If a battler runs out of TP after this step, the TP-Dispersion Barrier will automatically remove itself.

Some battlers might gain TP upon being hit. This gained TP does not apply to the TP-Dispersion Barrier as it is generated after being hit.

---

Final Damage

After a long, long journey, any remaining damage will be dealt to the target battler (unless there's other plugins affecting damage further).

---

Notetags

The following are notetags that have been added through this plugin. These notetags will not work with your game if this plugin is OFF or not present.

---

Cancellation Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType Barrier Cancel Damage Over: x> <hitType Barrier Cancel Damage Over: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Turns this state into a Cancellation Barrier that blocks all damage equal

---

Nullification Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType Nullify Barrier: x> <hitType Nullify Barrier: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Nullification Barriers block all damage at the cost of one charge. - If a Nullification Barrier runs out of charges, it will automatically

 remove itself from the battler.

- Replace 'hitType' with any of the following:

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.

 be the barrier's charges.
 - 'user' will refer to the current attacking user. If none is present,
   then refer to the target.
 - 'target' will be the battler receiving the damage.

- Note! This effect is incompatible with the Absorption Barrier effect and

 both cannot be placed on the same state. They can, however, be placed on
 two separate states.
 Examples:
 <All Nullify Barrier: 3>
 <Physical Nullify Barrier: 5>
 <Magical Nullify Barrier: user.level + target.level>
 <Element Fire Nullify Barrier: Math.randomInt(10)>
 <Element Wind, Ice Nullify Barrier: $gameVariables.value(42)>

---

<Nullify Barrier Degen: x> <Nullify Barrier Degen: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - This will cause the charges for the Nullification Barrier to decay by a

 certain amount each regeneration phase.

- Replace 'x' with a static number for it to decay by. - Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines how many charges it

 will decay by.
 - 'target' will be the battler the Nullification Barrier is on.
 Examples:
 <Nullify Barrier Degen: 1>
 <Nullify Barrier Degen: Math.randomInt(3)>

---

<Nullify Barrier Regen: x> <Nullify Barrier Regen: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - This will cause the charges for the Nullification Barrier to raise by a

 will regen by.
 - 'target' will be the battler the Nullification Barrier is on.
 Examples:
 <Nullify Barrier Regen: 1>
 <Nullify Barrier Regen: Math.randomInt(3)>

---

Reduction Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType Reduce Barrier: x%> <hitType Reduce Barrier: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Turns the state into a Reduction Barrier. Reduction Barriers reduce

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.
 - 'Element name' for elemental damage that matches the element's name.
 - Insert multiple element id's or names with commas separating them.

- Replace 'x' with a percentile number indicating the amount of damage it

 will reduce by.

- Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines the percentage of

 damage that will be reduced by.
 - 'user' will refer to the current attacking user. If none is present,
   then refer to the target.
 - 'target' will be the battler receiving the damage.
 Examples:
 <All Reduce Barrier: 20%>

 <Element Fire Reduce Barrier: Math.random() * 0.50>
 <Element Wind, Ice Reduce Barrier: $gameVariables.value(42) * 0.01>

---

Absorption Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType Absorb Barrier: x> <hitType Absorb Barrier: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Turns the state into an Absorption Barrier which contains a visible

 barrier that will block damage 1 for 1.

- If the Absorption Barrier's value is reduced to 0, it will automatically

 remove itself.

- Replace 'hitType' with any of the following:

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.
 - 'Element name' for elemental damage that matches the element's name.
 - Insert multiple element id's or names with commas separating them.

- Replace 'x' with a number value to determine the barrier value the

 Absorption Barrier state has upon being applied.

- Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines what barrier value

 Absorption Barrier state has upon being applied.
 - 'user' will refer to the current attacking user. If none is present,
   then refer to the target.
 - 'target' will be the battler receiving the damage.

- Note! This effect is incompatible with the Nullification Barrier effect

 and both cannot be placed on the same state. They can, however, be placed
 on two separate states.
 Examples:
 <All Absorb Barrier: 300>
 <Physical Absorb Barrier: 500>
 <Magical Absorb Barrier: user.def + target.mdf>

- Used for: State Notetags - This will cause the barrier for the Absorption Barrier to decay by a

 certain amount each regeneration phase.

- Replace 'x' with a static number for it to decay by. - Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines how much barrier it

 will decay by.
 - 'target' will be the battler the Absorption Barrier is on.
 Examples:
 <Absorb Barrier Degen: 1>
 <Absorb Barrier Degen: Math.randomInt(3)>

---

<Absorb Barrier Regen: x> <Absorb Barrier Regen: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - This will cause the barrier for the Absorption Barrier to regen by a

 certain amount each regeneration phase.

- Replace 'x' with a static number for it to regen by. - Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines how much barrier it

 will regen by.
 - 'target' will be the battler the Absorption Barrier is on.
 Examples:
 <Absorb Barrier Regen: 1>
 <Absorb Barrier Regen: Math.randomInt(3)>

MP Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType MP Barrier: x%> <hitType MP Barrier: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Turns this state into an MP-Dispersion Barrier state where a portion of

 the incoming damage can be dispersed into the affected battler's MP pool.

- Damage will be dispersed 1 for 1 with MP. If there is insufficient MP,

 the damage dispersion percentile will be reduced to account for MP.

- If MP reaches 0, the state will automatically remove itself. - Replace 'hitType' with any of the following:

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.
 - 'Element name' for elemental damage that matches the element's name.
 - Insert multiple element id's or names with commas separating them.

- Replace 'x' with a percentile number indicating the amount of damage that

 is dispersed into the battler's MP pool.

- Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines the percentage of

 damage that will be dispersed into the MP pool.
 - 'user' will refer to the current attacking user. If none is present,
   then refer to the target.
 - 'target' will be the battler receiving the damage.
 Examples:
 <All MP Barrier: 20%>
 <Physical MP Barrier: 40%>
 <Magical MP Barrier: user.hpRate()>
 <Element Fire MP Barrier: Math.random() * 0.50>
 <Element Wind, Ice MP Barrier: $gameVariables.value(42) * 0.01>

---

TP Barrier-Related Notetags

---

<hitType TP Barrier: x%> <hitType TP Barrier: formula>

- Used for: State Notetags - Turns this state into a TP-Dispersion Barrier state where a portion of

 the incoming damage can be dispersed into the affected battler's TP pool.

- Damage will be dispersed 1 for 1 with TP. If there is insufficient TP,

 the damage dispersion percentile will be reduced to account for TP.

- If TP reaches 0, the state will automatically remove itself. - TP can be generated upon being hit. This gained TP does not apply to the

 TP-Dispersion Barrier as it is generated after being hit.

- Replace 'hitType' with any of the following:

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.
 - 'Element name' for elemental damage that matches the element's name.
 - Insert multiple element id's or names with commas separating them.

- Replace 'x' with a percentile number indicating the amount of damage that

 is dispersed into the battler's TP pool.

- Replace 'formula' with a calculation that determines the percentage of

 damage that will be dispersed into the TP pool.
 - 'user' will refer to the current attacking user. If none is present,
   then refer to the target.
 - 'target' will be the battler receiving the damage.
 Examples:
 <All TP Barrier: 20%>
 <Physical TP Barrier: 40%>
 <Magical TP Barrier: user.hpRate()>
 <Element Fire TP Barrier: Math.random() * 0.50>
 <Element Wind, Ice TP Barrier: $gameVariables.value(42) * 0.01>

---

Barrier Bypass-Related Notetags

---

<Ignore Barriers>

- Used for: Skill, Item Notetags - Causes this skill or item to completely ignore any barriers on the target.

---

<Ignore Barriers as User>

- Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags - If an attacker with this notetag on any of its trait objects attacks a

 target with barriers, ignore the target's barriers.

---

<Ignore Barriers as Target>

- Used for: Actor, Class, Weapon, Armor, Enemy, State Notetags - If a target battler has this notetag on any of its trait objects receives

 an attack, any barriers on the target battler will be ignored.

---

Break State-Related Notetags

---

<hitType Breaks State>

- Used for: State Notetags - If an attack hits a battler with this state and state's notetag, as long

 as the damage type matches, automatically remove the state.

- Replace 'hitType' with any of the following:

 - 'All' for all damage types.
 - 'Certain Hit' for certain hit damage only.
 - 'Physical' for physical damage only.
 - 'Magical' for magical damage only.
 - 'Element id' for elemental damage that matches the element's 'id'.
 - 'Element name' for elemental damage that matches the element's name.
 - Insert multiple element id's or names with commas separating them.

- This can be used for states that aren't barriers. - This occurs before most of the pre-damage phase.
