How do I lower enemy Instinct to boost my physical damage in Dragonfire?
In the stat triangle, physical damage is reduced by the defender's Instinct. Breaking enemy Instinct = all your physical damage (every basic attack in the army) rises.
Who lowers enemy Instinct:
- Jagadrix (*Cunning Whispers*): −Instinct and −Initiative at the same time.
- Shadowsong / Vaeldra *Ensnare*: −18% Instinct/Initiative.
- Tashix *Dragon's Cunning*: −10% enemy Instinct.
- Warrior auras like *Battle Rush*: −Instinct on the enemy side.
In a physical army (Rhysarion at the Center for the aura, Daemoros/Thunderstrike/Venator on the flanks), adding an Instinct-breaker raises every basic attack. It's a free team multiplier.
Triangle reminder: Strength raises physical (attacker's side), Instinct reduces it (defender's side). You play both ends: your hitters have Strength, the enemy loses Instinct.
