Retaliate

This category is used for the Mutants whose ability is Retaliate.

Most of Saber Mutants and some others have this ability.

Effect

A mutant with this ability retaliates a percentage of the attack damage back to the attacking mutant. For most mutants it starts at 15% and increase to 25% at level 25.

Retaliate has the same gene of that Mutant's first attack, that is, a Saber mutant's Retaliate does bonus 50% damage to Mythic mutant and likewise, reduced to 50% to a Zoomorph mutant. Retaliate itself doesn't make any critical hit, thus Critical orbs are useless for increasing Retaliate damage. Other than using orbs to increase the Retaliate percentage, the best way is to equip Attack orbs.

Retaliate damage is executed in between the Shield and Drain Life (the latter is last), thus, it can defeat a mutant before it heals itself.

Trivia

Retaliate damage could take the Boost or Curse effect into account. After the unspecified date, the ability can no longer be boosted by user's Boost orb, nor reduced by the Curse.
- This formula indicates how it worked: {(Attack Damage-Curse points)×(1+Boost percentage)}×Retaliate percentage=Retaliate damage.
