This is a comprehensive list of all the damage riders in the game | Unlike '''weapon riders''', '''damage riders''' can "ride" on damage sources other than weapon or unarmed damage. | ||
This makes them more flexible and potentially abusable than basic '''weapon riders'''. | |||
In particular, when combined with one or more '''damage rider source''' effects, a '''damage rider''' can potentially apply multiple times to a single attack, effectively multiplying their provided damage bonus. | |||
This is a comprehensive list of all the '''damage riders''' in the game which can be acquired by the player. There are other '''damage riders''' exclusive to certain enemies or attached to items not available in the game (outside of cheats). These effects are excluded from the list below. | |||
If a damage type is not specified, the damage bonus will inherit the type from whatever damage source it is applied to. | If a damage type is not specified, the damage bonus will inherit the type from whatever damage source it is applied to. | ||

The top 5 '''damage riders''' in the above list are '''universal'''. They will apply to any damage instance, even ones '''detached''' from a spell or attack. All the other '''damage riders''' involve conditions like <code>IsSpell()</code> or <code>IsMeleeAttack()</code> so any damage instance that is not a part of a spell or weapon attack cannot be boosted by these non-'''universal damage riders'''. Status effect damage like {{Cond|Simple Toxin}} is an example of damage '''detached''' from any attack or spell that can only be boosted by '''universal damage riders'''. See below for a more detailed discussion of '''detached''' damage instances. | |||
