Monster Vulnerabilities
Ice monsters take more damage from fire weapons. That's represented by purple damage numbers when you hit them with fire.
When you hit a monster, keep an eye on the color of the damage number over its head.
- Purple means it's taking extra damage from your type of attack.
- Orange means it's taking normal damage.
- Yellow means is taking less than normal damage, and you should switch to a different weapon or spell.
A good rule of thumb is that ice monsters take extra damage from fire weapons, and vice versa.
