What is the new sunder effect?

[Gout Gout Fever]

What does is it do?

[Mike]

Its a damage de-buff that bosses have on some attacks. SO if you get hit by a sunder attack, your screen will get red around the edges and you will take more damage until the de-buff wears off after a few seconds.

You can dodge with the new mechanic or just avoid the move by just walking.

Perfect, thanks man.

Sunder means to reduce your defenses, most likely armor or physical.

Doesn't it just make you take 15% more damage (I might be making that up, idk where I came up with that, must've read it somewhere)?
Edit: looked it up myself like a big boy.
Sunder makes you take an additional x% damage for Y seconds. Multiple instances do not stack, only the highest is applied. So it might not be 15%, seems it varies.

Sunder is an old term from long ago games. Yes, when you lower a defensive stat, that means you take more damage.

It originally applied to armor meaning your armor class was reduced which in effect caused you to take more damage. The amount of damage varies from game to game as its the devs choice what to apply it to or how long its applied.

2 games off top of my head that used it were WoW and Witcher series.

The one I was hit with was a 43% damage increase (yikes), and this was on Ultimate, I did not see any sunder on normal

The first main boss on normal (The snake boss in the cellar) has a sunder attack with his wave attack. They are definitely in normal you must have just never gotten hit with one if you are experienced with the bosses in the game.

Ya I feel that. Just wanted to clarify that it doesn't actually reduce anything.

yea you can be super tank build and ignore it or you can avoid getting sundered.

[StreamWhenGuy]

Just avoid getting sundered to not die in one hit looool xdd
If you're homeless just buy a house.

I think they've overdone this debuff just a little tiny bit
