Aura

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Auras are cell modifiers that may affect the function of a cell.

Auras

Each cell can only have 1 aura. They appear as a color or tint to the cell.

Burning and Frozen auras are visible (and have their usual effect) even when the cell is hidden. Otherwise, the aura is not visible and has no effect until the cell is revealed.

Auras can be created by items, Stage Mods or Mastery effects.

Flares shot by items, Firefly's effect or  Pyro make Burning cells on impact. Blessings shot by items make Sanctified cells on impact.

Aura Image Effect
Burning Burning kills monsters and destroys certain other objects (strangers, signs, barrels) in that cell. Unopened Burning cells have a visual signifier. When a visible or hidden burning cell is left-clicked, the player loses 1 life unless immune to Burning effects. Chording from a nearby cell or flagging with right-click does not cause the player to lose life. Bosses die if they stand on Burning tiles for three consecutive turns, extended to four if they have any Boss Mods.
Electric Electric cells double the effect of most objects. All loot (Coins, diamonds, (dark) hearts, meta-progression pickups) give twice their value. Items are duplicated on pickup. Monsters deal double damage. Chests give two results (Special Chest effects apply only once still). Wishpools give double rewards. Strangers activate twice.
Frozen Frozen cells cannot be interacted by flagging or clicking. Frozen cells do not count as a monster tile when Chording. Frozen cells can contain monsters. Frozen monsters do not add to your overall monster count as if they were flagged, meaning freezing a tile can be used to check for monsters. Bosses can temporarily be frozen, but have a chance to break out each turn.
Ethereal Ethereal cells generate mana equal to the cell value each turn. Additionally, targeted magic items will also target that space.
Cursed Cursed cells sacrifice visible cell contents whenever you take damage to deflect 1 damage. If there are multiple cursed cells containing objects it will sacrifice starting from the lowest object on the right side. Chests opened on cursed tiles will always contain omens.
Sanctified Sanctified cells improve your restore life effects by 1 if the cell is occupied. If they contain a monster, it is killed when you restore life. Chests opened on Sanctified tiles will never contain omens.
Toxic Toxic cells give you  Poison when left-clicked, then are removed.
