Damage/Heat Damage

Damage is one of the four primary elemental damage types. Deals increased damage to but reduced against . Its Status Effects ignites enemies with damage over time, causing them to panic and temporarily reduces Armor.
==Status Effects==
===General===
The status effect of damage is Ignite. It sets the enemy ablaze, which makes them panic, reduces their armor by up to 50% and, after a 1 second delay, deals a tick of damage every second for 6 seconds.
Enemies killed while under or by a proc will be left in ashes, burning away shortly afterward.
====Damage Over Time====
Each tick deals damage equal to:
{
\begin{aligned}
\text{Modded Base Damage} &= \text{Base Damage} \times (1 + \text{Base Damage Bonuses}) \times (1 + \text{Faction Damage Bonuses})
\end{aligned}
}
::Notice that modded base damage calculation used for DoT is not the same as normal damage calculations, ignoring physical and elemental damage bonuses.
{
\begin{aligned}
\text{Heat Proc Damage per Tick} &= 0.5 \times \text{Modded Base Damage} \\
&\qquad \times (1 + \text{Heat Damage Bonuses}) \\
&\qquad \times (1 + \text{Faction Damage Bonuses}) \\
&\qquad \times (1 + \text{Status Damage Bonuses}) \\
&\qquad \times \text{Additional Multipliers}
\end{aligned}
}
::Additional Multipliers include modded critical multiplier on Critical Hit and multipliers on Enemy Body Parts; these stack multiplicatively with each other.
For example, tick damage for a weapon with an innate 100 damage, , , , and will be:
:Modded Damage = 
:Heat Mod Multiplier = 
:Tick Damage = 
As can be seen in the above calculations for tick damage, Faction Damage is applied twice, making their effective bonus . This is a 1.30*1.30 = 1.69 or +69% increase for the 30% Faction Damage mods and 1.55*1.55 = 2.4025 or +140.25% for the 55% Primed Faction Damage mods.

Time from initial proc	0s	1s	2s	3s	4s	5s	6s	7s
Tick damage occured? 	✗ 	✓ 	✓ 	✓ 	✓ 	✓ 	✓ 	✗
====Heat Inherit and Repeated Application====
Repeated application of procs do not stack tick damage in the same way other damage over time (DoT) status effects like , , or do. Instead, a proc both adds a stack and refreshes the duration of all currently active heat stacks on the target. This allows for ramping up tick damage indefinitely (scaling up linearly) as long as heat status is kept refreshed within the 6 second effect duration (modified by Status Duration). Additionally, all status stacks are automatically consolidated into one tick of damage per second, with new heat procs refreshing and further adding to this tick damage. 
*Modded bonuses that can apply to the damage of the status, such as and Faction Damage Mods, will be lost if the first proc on the enemy is from a source without any such modifiers, like Warframe abilities or Manifold Bond, hindering the performance of Weapons that rely on Heat status to deal damage. 
**To avoid this, the first proc on the enemy must always come from a Weapon that has those modifiers.
**Warframes that can widely apply , such as Ember, can make this a difficult task.
**Status damage mods such as are excepted, and will count towards the status damage from their weapon regardless of modifiers on the first proc.
====Crowd Control====
Enemies affected by a proc are ignited in flames and will panic and flail around for a few seconds, preventing them from taking any other actions. The length of the panic animation depends on enemy type: approximately 4 seconds for humanoids, 3 for most Infested, and 2 for MOAs and Chargers, however Ospreys, Bosses and Tenno are immune, and their ability to act is not impeded. Repeated application of status will reapply the panic effect.
====Armor Stripping====
The status effect's armor strip has a ramp-up time when it first procs and a ramp downtime when the proc ends. Every 0.5 seconds after the initial proc, the enemy will have 15%, 30%, 40%, 50% of its armor stripped. It will therefore take 2 seconds to reach the maximum armor strip. Proccing more heat status effects within this time frame will not speed up the armor stripping process.
After the proc ends, the target will regain armor every 1.5 seconds for 6 seconds. The enemy's armor strip will decrease as follows: 50%, 40%, 30%, 15%, 0%. 
Status Duration mods will increase the time intervals for the armor strip as expected. For example, with +100% Status Duration, the armor strip will occur every second instead of every half second. As a result, the full 50% armor strip will only be achieved after 4 seconds.
 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 with .
===Railjack===
The status effect of damage against Railjack space enemies is Sear, dealing 6 ticks of damage over 5 seconds. Against the Tenno's Railjack, it causes a Fire Hazard which causes ship armaments to overheat faster and cool down slower.
Sear ticks deal 100% (1 + Heat Damage bonuses) as damage. Unlike standard heat, each proc has an independent duration and is not refreshed by additional heat procs.

==Tips==
* is a rare case of resistance reduction that will multiply the effects of heat.
* damage and its status effects can make it a partial replacement for damage when it comes to reducing armor.
