Damage 2.0/Corrosive Damage

Damage is one of the six secondary elemental damage types, composed of and damage. It is immensely useful against and creatures, but fares poorly against the of some elite enemies.
==Status Effects==
===General===
The status effect of damage is Corrosion. It temporarily degrades the armor of the afflicted target by 20% for 8 seconds. Each stack inflicted reduces the original armor by an additional 6%, culminating in a total armor reduction of 80% at 10 stacks, with each stack having its own duration. Any stacks applied after the 10th will replace the oldest stack. 
 can increase the maximum status procs by +2 (+3 for ). Applying 14 stacks can fully remove all armor for the duration of the status.
's passive causes enemies damaged by him to be permanently more vulnerable to status, with the first proc degrading 50% of armor, allowing him to have 100% armor reduction at 10 stacks. This vulnerability can come from any source of procs, not just from Hydroid's weapons or abilities, as long as he has damaged the enemy.
Enemies affected by a proc will be covered in a faint green, electricity-like substance. Enemies killed while affected by a proc will have their corpses partially corroded and dissolved.
 status armor reduction is multiplicative with other armor reduction sources. This can be expressed as the following: 
For example, a full 4-player squad with max-rank , an active proc, and max stacked proc will result in an enemy's armor being reduced to:
:.
If only one player has a max-rank with the above statuses, an enemy's armor would instead be reduced to:
:.
An active proc, and max stacked proc without would result in an enemy's armor being reduced to:
:.
Currently, the only non-ability method to completely remove armor is to use , or a dagger in tandem with .
===Railjack===
 does not have a Railjack space counterpart and is thus not able to proc any status effect nor is it included in calculations for status proc weighting.
==Type Effectiveness==
As with all damage types effective against armor, damage's type modifier works in two ways: it ignores a percentage of the target's armor, and increases the damage dealt in the same way as a type modifier against hitpoints. Practically speaking, this means that damage is only reduced by 25% of a target's whole Ferrite Armor and the base damage is increased by +75%.

==Tips==
* damage can be combined with damage (when applicable) to create a deadly damage combo against enemies with armor, especially the Grineer. The reduction of armor will lessen the reduction of damage, while viral procs will increase damage dealt even further.
* pairs well with weapons that do primarily damage. This results in an excellent faction-neutral build, as Corrosive is either buffed or normal against every damage type except for Corpus , which the Impact makes up for, especially on a high-crit weapon.
