'''Weapon Damage''' is a stat that determines the player's [[Bullet Damage]], and also increases their [[Melee Damage]]. Some [[abilities]] can deal Weapon Damage.
Weapon Damage increases [[Bullet Damage]] and Light [[Melee Damage]] (and therefore Heavy Melee Damage).

== Base Weapon Properties ==
== Sources of Weapon Damage ==
=== Base Bullet Damage ===
All [[Weapon|weapon items]] implicitly provide weapon damage based on tier. The following items explicitly grant increased weapon damage:
Base Bullet Damage is the amount of damage your Hero deals with no items. This value is unique to each hero and increases automatically as you level up through [[Boons]].
{{Navbox|title=Items|titlestyle=background-color:#ffefd7;text-align:center;
 
|list1=
=== Spreadshots ===
{{ItemBox|item_name = Basic Magazine}}
Spreadshots allow certain weapons to fire multiple bullets at once (such as shotguns or shurikens). In these cases, all calculation rules apply to every individual bullet.
{{ItemBox|item_name = Hollow Point Ward}}
 
{{ItemBox|item_name = High-Velocity Mag}}
{{HeroIcon|Drifter}} Is an exception to this, where the same amount of bullet damage is dealt to a target regardless of how many pellets hit per shot.

=== Piercing shots ===
{{HeroIcon|Paige}}'s weapon's shots pierce through enemies and can hit multiple enemies per projectile, disappearing only when they hit a map surface. However, they do not deal headshot bonus damage, but can proc headshot items.
 
{{HeroIcon|Doorman}}'s weapon's shots also pierce enemies. Unlike Paige's, they can deal headshot damage but deal half damage to all enemies hit after the first.
 
=== Melee Damage ===
[[Melee Damage]] is considered a source of Weapon Damage and scales with the Weapon Damage stat by 50%. Items and abilities that trigger from "dealing weapon damage" or "weapon damage hits" (e.g. {{ItemIcon|Stalker}}, {{AbilityIcon|Card Trick}}, etc.) include Melee Damage. Some effects that specify "bullets", such as {{ItemIcon|Metal Skin}} and {{ItemIcon|Toxic Bullets}}, have no effect with Melee Damage, but others do (such as {{ItemIcon|Slowing Bullets}} and {{ItemIcon|Weighted Shots}}).
 
In addition to Melee Resist gained from items, [[Damage Resistance#Bullet Resist|Bullet Resist]] affects all Weapon Damage, granting another source of resistance against Melee Damage. The only exception is {{HeroIcon|Venator}}'s innate Spirit-scaled Bullet Resist, although this is likely a bug.
 
== Combat Modifiers ==
=== Damage Falloff ===
Damage Falloff reduces damage based on distance. All heroes have a Falloff Range in which damage is linearly reduced from 100% to 10%.
 
When aiming at an enemy hero, a dot on their health bar indicates the percentage of damage you will deal:
{| class="wikitable"
! Dot Color
! Damage Percentage
|-
| <span style="color:#fe6160">'''Red'''</span>
| 10% - 20%
|-
| <span style="color:#feab44">'''Orange'''</span>
| 20% - 35%
|-
| <span style="color:#f9f926">'''Yellow'''</span>
| 35% - 75%
|-
| <span style="color:#6f6f6f">'''Transparent'''</span>
| 75% - 100%
|}
 
=== Crit Multiplier ===
Aiming for the head deals increased damage. [[Troopers]], [[Guardians]], and [[Heroes]] have a weakpoint hitbox that receives '''1.65x''' bullet damage when hit.
 
<math>\text{Crit Multiplier} = 1 + [(0.65 + \text{Crit Bonus Scale}) \times \text{Crit Resist}]</math>
 
The following heroes cannot deal critical damage:
* {{HeroIcon|Graves}}
* {{HeroIcon|Paige}} (though she can proc headshot item effects)
* {{HeroIcon|Viscous}}' alt-fire
* {{HeroIcon|Yamato}}'s alt-fire
 
'''Crit Bonus Scale''' is a stat that modifies critical damage dealt by certain heroes.
{{#invoke:HeroDataArrays|heroCritTable}}
 
Abilities that can deal critical damage have different critical modifiers. This replaces the +65% multiplier of base weapons.

== Target Modifiers ==
=== Bullet Resistance ===
{{Main|Damage Resistance}}
Incoming damage is reduced by the target's '''Bullet Resist''' and increased by the attacker's '''Bullet Resist Reduction'''. These stats stack multiplicatively. For a detailed breakdown on how multiple items stack, see the main page.
 
=== Increased Bullet Damage ===
Increased Bullet Damage is a debuff inflicted on enemies. It multiplies the total amount of damage they take from you. Because this is applied at the end of the calculation, it also increases the effectiveness of your Flat Weapon Damage.

Flat Weapon Damage is an extra amount of damage obtained through certain hero abilities.

{{ItemBox|item_name = Debuff Reducer}}
'''Flat Weapon Damage is not increased by your "Weapon Damage %" multiplier.''' It is an additive source added to your total ''after'' the percentage multiplier is applied to your base. However, it is still affected by Damage Falloff, Bullet Resist, and Crit Multipliers.

== Weapon Damage Formula ==
The final damage dealt by a bullet is determined by multiplying your base stats, your item bonuses, and various situational modifiers.
 
<math>\begin{array}{c}
\text{Final Damage} = \\
[(\text{Base DMG} \times \text{DMG Multiplier}) + \text{Flat Bonus}] \\
\times \text{Falloff} \times \text{Resistances} \times \text{Crit Multiplier}
\end{array}</math>
 
== Weapon Damage Scaling ==
Some abilities scale with Weapon Damage.
 
For most Weapon Damage scaling abilities, they only scale based on the "Bonus Weapon Damage" stat, which is granted by items and Weapon shop investments (see list below). {{HeroIcon|Paradox}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Kinetic Carbine}} is an exception, since it scales with her Base Weapon Damage (counting as a full burst shot), and thus increases with [[Boon|Boons]]. [[Melee Damage]] scaling abilities also scale with Weapon Damage, since Melee Damage scales with Weapon Damage (by 50%).
 
=== Abilities that scale with weapon damage ===
{{AbilityTable|weaponscaling}}
 
== NPCs ==
Attacks from [[Troopers]], [[Guardians]], [[Neutrals]], [[Base Turrets]] and the [[Mid-Boss]] deal weapon damage.
 
== Sources ==
All [[Weapon|weapon items]] provide an automatic increase in Weapon Damage based on the player's total soul investment in that category:
 
{{#invoke:ItemInvestmentTable|write_weapon}}
 
The following items grant increased weapon damage:
{{Item stat table|Weapon Damage}}
 
* {{ItemIcon|Headshot Booster}} deals +{{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Headshot Booster|HeadShotBonusDamage}} bonus Weapon Damage with headshots.
* {{ItemIcon|Monster Rounds}} increases Weapon Damage against NPCs by +{{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Monster Rounds|NonPlayerBonusWeaponPower}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Berserker}} increases Weapon Damage by +{{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Berserker|WeaponPowerPerStack}} per [[stack]] for sustaining damage.
* {{ItemIcon|Headhunter}} additionally deals +{{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Headhunter|HeadShotBonusDamage}} bonus Weapon Damage with headshots.
* {{ItemIcon|Intensifying Magazine}} increases Weapon Damage to a maximum of {{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Intensifying Magazine|BaseAttackDamagePercentAtMaxDuration}} after continuously firing.
* {{ItemIcon|Opening Rounds}} increases Weapon Damage by +{{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Opening Rounds|BaseAttackDamagePercentBonus}} against enemies above {{#invoke:ItemData|get_prop|Opening Rounds|EnemyLifeThreshold}}% health.
* {{ItemIcon|Golden Goose Egg}} grants random [[Permanent Buffs]], including Weapon Damage.
