Mercy Hit / Ring of Mercy

[Stellar Remnant]

・Added a new passive "Mercy Hit". Pals with this passive cannot reduce enemy HP below 1 when attacking.
・New item "Ring of Mercy" has been added. When wearing this ring, you cannot reduce enemy HP below 1 when attacking.

Let's go! Capturing pals with max capture modifier will be easier than ever.

Anyone tested if this applies to damage over time effects too?

Can confirm that DoT's will kill them anyway. Definitely make sure they learn non DoT abilities.

i have used this to catch several have not had any die yet. yeah i put my pals away once i have the health down

I've had several pals die while wearing the ring. I thought at first it was bugged, but reading this thread it didn't occur to me that my mount might have been using a DoT, and that might be the culprit. Will test further, but I can clearly confirm that even while in full Mercy mode, pals have died after attaining 1hp.

Did your pals also have the passive for mercy? The ring only affects your damage not your pals damage. You have the ring and pals need to have the passive for it, otherwise their dot's etc will kill.

This does feels like an oversight if its the case, incase it is someone gotta report the issue.

It really doesn't. The descriptions are very clear. Riding a mount and attacking isn't going to apply mercy if the mount itself doesn't have mercy. The DoT thing also makes sense, actually I didn't even think to test it because it seemed obvious to me it would kill them. DoT is no longer damage from "you" or the pal, its environmental/self harm at that point

Ah, ok then. Was a bit confused before

[Jaquento]

found out the ring applies when riding when I was fighting pal friends... and they didn't die as expected...
