ATK+ (buff): Affected target has an increased boost to ATK stats, increasing its damage and healing output of its abilities. Burned (debuff): Target suffers Fire damage each round until the effect expires. During this effect, its DEF is also lowered. Subsequent applications of the effect refreshes the Burn effect back to its maximum duration. Burning Skin (buff): Affected target has a chance to inflict a Burn debuff from a melee attack. The effect expires after three turns. Additional application of the effect refreshes its duration. CRIT+ (buff): Affected target has a boost to CRIT, increasing their chances of successfully landing a critical hit on healing or damage attacks for three turns. CRIT boost is dependant on the level of the skill. Additional application of the effect refreshes its duration. DEF+ (buff): Affected target has a boost to DEF stat, reducing the amount of damage they take for the next 3 turns. Additional application of the effect refreshes its duration. The amount DEF boosted is based on the level of the skill. Extra attacks (effect): The target or allies have the chance to do an extra basic attack. This can be a result of a buff (like Haste), or granted by a trait (like Valkin's Lead By Example). There are also a few rare runes that have a passive/4th stat (20% chance for an extra attack). An extra basic attack can trigger an Epic effect (with a few exceptions like Hog Wild). Note: There is no icon for this effect. It's used on this wiki page only. Weak Spot (buff): Knowledge of enemies grant enhanced CRIT damage. Increases CRIT Multiplier by +50%.
