Conditions: Difference between revisions

'''Conditions''' are changes in a character's status, both beneficial and harmful. They can be inflicted by certain [[Spells]], class features, surfaces and other environmental hazards, etc. Many conditions are temporary, and some can also be removed with the right spell or potion.  

== Stack ID ==

== Stack type ==

Stack type determines what happens when applying a condition, when that same condition or a condition with the same stack ID is already present. This tells you which condition you will end up with if you try to apply multiple conditions of the same stack ID, and tells you which conditions can be added on top of each other for increased duration.  

 

There are four different stack types:

: The new condition is not applied, and the present stays as it is keeping its current duration. Often used by equipment variation of conditions, e.g. if you have [[Barkskin (Condition)|Barkskin]] until long rest and equip the [[Barkskin Armour]], the condition from the armour will not replace the one you have until long rest.

: The present condition is replaced by the new one. E.g. if you have [[Hastened (Condition)|Hastened]] from drinking a {{RarityItem|Potion of Speed}} and drink another one, you will replace the condition you currently have, immediately making you {{Cond|Lethargic}}.

== Duration ==

The duration of a condition is determined by the source the condition is applied from. Some conditions do not have durations. This may be conditions that are active based on something else, like a passive feature or standing near something. The condition {{Cond|Lightly Obscured}} is a condition that doesn't have a duration, instead it is automatically applied if you are {{cond|Hiding}} in a place with little light, and is automatically removed when not hiding anymore. There are also conditions that don't lose duration over time. This may be conditions that lose duration as a result of something else, like {{cond|Arcane Ward}} which loses duration when you are hit. Conditions also don't lose duration if you are in dialogue or a cutscene. However, this only counts for character that are part of the dialogue/cutscene and not just listening in.

[[Tick type]] is a mechanic that determines when a condition loses its duration. When you are outside [[turn-based mode]] or combat mode, one turn is 6 seconds.

=== Tick type ===

Tick type determines when a condition loses its duration, which most of the time is either at the start or end of the creatures turn. Tick type is not displayed in-game.  

: The condition loses its duration at the start of the creature's turn.

: The condition loses its duration at the end of the creature's turn. An example of this is [[Blade Ward (Condition)|Blade Ward]]. If a creature applies a condition like this to itself that lasts for 1 turn it will lose that condition as soon as soon as it ends its turn, for example using {{SAI|Action Surge}}.

: The condition loses its duration at the end of the ''round''. The end of the round happens after the last creature in the initiative order ends its turn.

== Status properties ==

Some conditions have special properties that make them behave in different ways like initiating combat or not losing duration over time.

! Name !! Description

| {{SP|FreezeDuration}} || This condition does not lose duration over time.

== Condition types ==

Some conditions have a "type" that indicates how the condition can be removed, prevented, or how it reacts to other actions.

Here are some ways to remove or prevent certain conditions. For a full list of cures and preventions for each condition type, see their articles.
