Hello,
If you're reading this you have picked up the Shadow Mimic Wolf Core on one of your characters. You might also be wondering why certain damage types seemed to be going though.
Well to begin with, the Shadow Mimic Wolf Core's passive: Gloomy Disposition only negates magical damage.That means that not all magic will be blocked. Only damage.
The main ways that spell pierce the Core's passive despite being spells are:
Spells which deal Physical Damage (Lot of Earth & Ice Type spells do this)
Spells which deal True Damage (Starting from Grade-3 and above, you can be assured that almost all bosses will have at least one ability that inflicts true damage)
Spells which deal Environmental Damage (Special Fields, which I'm sure you already know about)
Spells which deal types of Tick Damage (I just grouped all damage from status effects into this one bracket: [Poisoned], [Burning], [Frostbite] etc).
Tick Damage is annoying because you could be walking through fireballs like there's no tomorrow, feeling like a but eventually, your status gauge (dependent on your elemental resistance stat) will fill up. These can technically be grouped under Environmental Damage but will eventually fall off after inflicting enough damage (The threshold is usually X% of your damage) or running out of time; whichever comes first.
To counter this you could raise Physical Defense (There's Cores out there that nullify Physical Damage!), HP, Not go into Special Fields and I don't know, actually not get hit by spells you could dodge. I hope this helps!
I myself will the tackling the last boss tmrrw! Wish me luck MSS Players!
