A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

Onyx Lord Fight Strategy The Best Tips for Onyx Lord: Fight him on the outer edges of the arena. Take advantage of his Meteorite's long cast animation. Melee Users Onyx Lord only has a few moves in his repertoire and it is relatively easy to discern his patterns. Consider fighting him on the outer edges of the arena as the center has uneven terrain which can cause his meteorites to impact with the ground near you, dealing splash damage. Onyx Lord has three main attack patterns: Meteorite, Slice and Dice, and Gravity Well. He will rarely diverge from these attacks. Meteorite has a very long animation and should be exploited. After he plunges his sword from the ground, you can try and get behind him for one or two hits. The meteors don't track very well at melee range and they are unlikely to hit you this way. His Gravity Orb attack comes out very quickly, has very good tracking and requires precise timing to dodge. His Slice and Dice move begins with a diagonal dash to his left as he slashes upwards followed by a large, sweeping slash in the opposite direction. Dodging through the first slash towards his right side should prevent the second slash from hitting you and will position you behind him for a quick counter. Overall, his Meteorite and Slice and Dice moves are his most punishable for melee players. Magic and Ranged Users Ranged players have the added advantage of being completely out of range of his sword plunge into Meteorite summon. Do note that he will sometimes charge towards you before he performs the plunge but the AoE is easy enough to avoid. The meteorites themselves have a slow travel speed and ranged/magic users should take this time to get a few hits in while they get ready to sidestep the projectiles. If you maintain your distance, the first slash of his Slice and Dice attack should land nowhere near you. However, this also makes you an easier target for the second slash. Try to dodge diagonally to the right after you see the first slash and then punish his recovery time accordingly. Onyx Lord Attacks & Counters Attack Description Counter Meteorite Plunges his sword into the ground, sending a shockwave out in a small radius around him. A black hole then forms above him where several meteorites emerge and fly towards his target. These projectiles explode on impact and leave a burning effect on the ground for a few seconds. The lower his HP is, the more meteorites he unleashes at once. Dodge the plunge attack precisely and get behind him. Alternatively, maintain your distance and sidestep the incoming meteorites. Gravity Well Onyx Lord forms an orb of void in his left hand and fires it at its target, pulling them closer if it hits. May also use this as a close ranged melee swipe, which will instead knock those away if it hits. This move has very good tracking and requires precision timing to dodge. Dodge to the side or through the orb. The melee variant comes out very quickly, so dodge accordingly. Slice and Dice Onyx Lord dashes diagonally to his left as he slashes upward with his sword. He quickly follows up with a downward slash in the other direction as he changes direction himself. Dodge through the first slash towards his right shoulder to get behind him and counter as he misses the second slash. For ranged, watch out for the first slash and then anticipate the second slash and dodge diagonally forward and to the right.
