Critical Status Buff	comment	The heroic counterpart to enemies turning red. Not only do Video Games tend to neglect the hindering effect of non-lethal injuries during combat, sometimes the character's Heroic Resolve effectively creates an automatic Status Buff as they approach Critical Existence Failure. This gives the player one last chance to dramatically turn the battle around, at the obvious risk of losing the battle entirely should they continue to take more hits. Sometimes this is an ability inherent to the character, other times it is granted through the use (or acquisition) of special items or equipment. In any case, a Critical Status Buff triggers automatically when the user's HP decreases to low levels, though whether or not the status boost remains in effect after the character has been healed (or recovers full HP) varies from game to game. Another variant has the buff's effect proportionally getting stronger the lower your HP (or any related meter/counter) becomes. Think of it this way — your character becomes stronger when they are in critical conditions or in near-death. Obviously, there is a balancing factor — the buff's effect gets weaker once you start recovering HP. If the benefits of this status are powerful enough, they can be the key to many a Self-Imposed Challenge, especially the Low-Level Run. In low-level games (and similar challenges) in many RPGs, monsters in The Very Definitely Final Dungeon are often powerful enough to KO a party member in one or two hits anyway, so if the player is already relying more on "Revive" than "Heal" spells, there's little practical difference between whether said character is at full health or not, and a player may as well exploit this status while they can. Also note that maintaining critical status for prolonged time can be difficult if the game refills the player's HP at regular intervals (such as after every fight). Players deliberately taking hits is a common sign that they are trying to invoke this trope and exploit it. Super-Trope to the Limit Break and Desperation Attack, which are active skills and attacks. Compare Comeback Mechanic, which applies specifically to multiplayer, and Rubber-Band A.I.. Contrast Injured Vulnerability, where being in a critical condition adds extra weaknesses, and Full Health Bonus, an ability that works better at high health rather than low health. See also Pain & Gain.

The Wrath skill guarantees criticals when the user has less than half HP. Later games would nerf both of these, making Miracle into a Last Chance Hit Point instead, and Wrath typically only boosting crit by 30 or so. (Still a very strong effect) Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn have the Resolve skill, which drastically boosts Strength, Skill and Speed when the user is low on health. Fire Emblem Fates: Scarlet's personal skill, In Extremis, increases her Critical Hit rate by 30 as long as her health is at 25% or lower. The Awakening skill, learned by Great Lords, increases the user's Hit, Avoid, Critical Hit rate, and Critical Evade by 30 when their health is below half. Fire Emblem: Three Houses adds the Defiant set of skills, obtained by mastering most Master Classes. If the unit's health is below 25%, it'll raise a certain stat. Some Demonic Beasts also have these equipped, making them more dangerous to take down if you can't kill them quickly.

Critical Status Buff / int_2263afda	comment	Tenra Bansho Zero has this as an explicit mechanic. Players get some say in just how seriously an attack wounds their characters and the more severe their worst injury, the better the combat bonuses they get. (They pay for it later when healing, because more serious wounds are also harder to recover from.) This is in fact the only way player characters can actually die in combat — by voluntarily checking off their "Dead" box for the maximum bonus possible (and to signal that the fight has just gotten that serious) and then taking enough damage to actually kill them.

Critical Status Buff / int_4c56381b	comment	The Binding of Isaac: The Whore Of Babylon, which boosts your stats dramatically when down to one red heart. Eve starts with it, and even gets a slightly stronger version of itnote Hers activates at one full red heart instead of half, and her damage multiplier increases from 0.75 to 1 as well, but ??? gets the most benefit if he finds it, since his inability to get red hearts is treated by the game as being permanently in critical condition. Eve can cheat this system in a way too, by using a Devil Room or Potato Peeler to shave off a red heart and get locked into permanent "critical" condition. Speaking of Eve, her entire play style revolves around this as she starts with abysmally low stats. At full health she'll struggle against rooms of even just flies and spiders, and good frigging luck if she lands a Damage Sponge boss like a Harbinger or Baby Plum in Chapter 1. To offset this she starts with Whore of Babylon (as mentioned) and Dead Bird which spawns an aggressive attack familiar for the remainder of the room if she takes damage. Generally the best boss strategy as her is to enter a boss room with one and a half hearts, take a hit, and then double-team the boss with her boosted attack and her aggressive familiar to sweep the room. Tons of items will only function properly if the player has little to no red health or only soul hearts. There's the aforementioned Whore of Babylon, but there's also Empty Vessel which requires having exactly zero red hearts. Scapular grants a Soul Heart when reaching a half-heart of health. The Polaroid and The Negative which give a shield and damage burst respectively when taking damage with 0.5 or fewer red hearts. Dark Prince's Crown gives a massive tears up when at exactly 1 red heart.

If the hero Heracles takes more than 50% of his Hit Points in damage, he goes into a berserk rage that increases his damage bonus as if his Strength were 25 points. Norse Mythology. If the deity Modi takes more than 50% of his maximum Hit Points in damage, he will go into a berserker rage. This doubles all of his abilities in combat, including his number of attacks per combat round and the damage he inflicts. 3rd Edition: Barbarians can trade their normal Rage ability for "Berserker Strength", gaining bonuses when their hp falls below a certain threshold. The feat Pain Mastery grants the user a Strength bonus based on how much damage they have taken. 4th Edition introduced a large number of effects that start when a character is seriously wounded, adding a "Bloodied" number (half the characters full HP) to character sheets and monster entries to mark when they come into play. In many monster cases powerful non-recharging effects like Splash Damage attacks get 'reloaded' when the monster is Bloodied. Something Awful: Dungeons & Dragons: Joey has several attacks and abilities that trigger when he becomes bloodied including an aura of fire, extra attacks, and just straight up extra damage die.

The only reason it doesn't count as a Desperation Attack is because it triggers automatically and cannot be controlled, causing you to erupt every ten seconds while your health stays below 20. On the other hand, it also straddles uselessness by the fact that not only it activates when you are about to die anyway, the explosion damages allies, your armor and due to a bug, it kills you on Normal difficulty and above.

Critical Status Buff / int_85698529	comment	Paper Mario 64 and its sequel The Thousand Year Door: Quite a few badges give attack, defense, and evasiveness boosts when Mario is in the "Danger" state (5 HP or less). There are also badges that give even bigger boosts when Mario is in the "Peril" state (1 HP). You can pay an NPC in both games to increase one stat at the cost of decreasing another. The very popular "Danger Mario" build involves lowering Mario's maximum HP to 5, making him permanently in the "Danger" state, and then piling on as many of these badges as possible to turn Mario into an invincible powerhouse. You can't lower Mario's maximum HP below 5, so the "Peril Mario" build doesn't see as much use. In special hacks of the game, in particular Master Quest and Pro Mode, redesign the bosses to have more health, more attacks, sometimes more allies, and more damage. Ironically, one of the best ways for pro players trying to beat these bosses is to deliberately take damage during the enemy turn so you get knocked into Peril, then to use various items and partner abilities to negate damage while Mario whales on the boss with the massive power boost.

One of these styles allows for Super moves to be used without spending the special bar if the character has a 4th of their life left. And another one makes the bar smaller every time you lose a character (King of Fighters is played in teams of 3), meaning that if you are on your last character you can charge it almost immediately.

Critical Status Buff / int_935a39be	comment	Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Lucario's attacks become stronger (and hit more easily) as his damage increases. Another example occurs in the fourth installment and Ultimate as a gameplay mechanic called Rage. With Rage, the more you're damaged, the more knockback you deliver. This can be both good and bad, as higher knockback means both easier KOs and combos that are harder to pull off. This doesn't completely remove what made Lucario unique, as the Aura Pokémon is still the only fighter that gets to modify properties of moves other than knockback. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Sephiroth will automatically sprout his iconic black wing when he reaches a certain damage threshold. The wing increases his speed, gives him a third jump, and makes him Immune to Flinching while executing Smash attacks, and it lasts until he KOs an enemy or is KO'd himself. Also in Ultimate, Terry gains access to two especially powerful moves, Power Geyser and Buster Wolf, when his damage exceeds 100%.

Several Pokémon species have passive abilities that boost attacks of a particular elemental type when the user is low on HP, counting Blaze for the Fire-type, Torrent for the Water-type, Overgrow for the Grass-type and Swarm for the Bug-type. There are also various Berries that yield automatic status boosts when the user's HP becomes low. A Pokémon holding a Liechi Berry can boost its attack power when its HP falls below 1/4th. Other berries exist that can do this for the other stats, while the Starf Berry greatly raises a random stat instead. Inverted by the ability Defeatist, the signature ability of the Archen line, which lowers the mon's offensive stats when HP is less than half. Pokémon Sun and Moon gives Zygarde the Power Construct ability, causing it to enter its One-Winged Angel form when its health falls down to 50% or less. In the Pokémon Ranger spinoff series, "latent power" boosts the Styler's attack power when low on HP.

Critical Status Buff / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy has several examples: In a few games, some equipment can activate Protect, Shell, or Haste buffs automatically when the user's HP drops to critical levels. Final Fantasy V: The Mystic Knight job has the Barrier passive ability which causes the character to automatically cast Shell on himself when put into critical health. In Final Fantasy VI, when a party member's HP is in critical status, there's a very small chance that their normal attack will be a special powerful attack instead. However, this is so rare that most players have never seen it while playing. Also fairly common is abuse of the Thief Knife, which grants bonus damage based on missing HP. Final Fantasy VII has the Final Attack support materia, which casts the linked materia when the character equipping it is killed — pairing it with the "Revive" or "Phoenix" materia results in an Auto-Revive. Final Fantasy VIII's Limit Breaks activate at random, with a greater chance of occurring if their HP is low or if the character is suffering from negative status effects. Final Fantasy X: The game contains the "SOS" equipment that can grant powerful status boosts while your character is below half of their maximum HP. Since some characters have odd-numbered hit point totals and a Phoenix Down revives your character at half health (rounding down), a clever player of the game's more brutal Self Imposed Challenges can double a character's speed almost all the time. Auron's ultimate weapon, the Masamune, gives him an attack power boost if he's missing more than half of his HP. Final Fantasy X-2 has the Cat Nip, an accessory found in the Bonus Dungeon. If you go critical while having it equipped, all your attacks will do 9999 damage. Pair this with the "Trigger Happy" skill, and you get a Game-Breaker that can take out even most Bonus Dungeon Bosses in one hit. The Updated Re-release made the accessory also add the Berserk status in order to counteract the Game-Breaker aspect. Final Fantasy XII has a set of abilities on its License board to boost the user's Defense, Attack, and/or Magic when their HP reaches critical levels. (Some bosses have these abilities too.) There are also inverse abilities granting Attack or Magic boosts any time the user is at full HP. The "Sentinel" class in Final Fantasy XIII has a passive ability called Deathward, which boosts their status when their HP drops under 25%. Final Fantasy XV soes this in a slightly different way - the Ascension node "Static Edge" boosts your attack power if you fully deplete your MP and go into Stasis. This is dangerous in a different way, as having no MP means your mobility is tanked, Noctis will stagger if you accidentally try to do something that consumes MP, and your ability to defend yourself if you get attacked is severely limited. The Episode Ardyn for the same game replaces the usual "Danger" mechanic with this, as when your HP is depleted, Ardyn enters "Overkill" state where his attacks are replaced with wild punches that deal thousands of damage, but at the cost of being slow, not to mention being in danger of actually being killed and facing a game over. And it still counts as death for End-Game Results Screen. Final Fantasy Tactics has abilities to grant a character things like Regen, Reraise, or Haste when their HP is critical.

Many favoured members of the Emperor's Children thrive on the pain they suffer, their wounds driving them to great heights of pleasure and encouraging them to fight even harder to prolong the experience. The Emperor's Children's 8th Edition Legion Warlord Trait represents this by boosting their Attacks characteristic whenever they are wounded.

Critical Status Buff / int_be68ee29	comment	Another example occurs in the fourth installment and Ultimate as a gameplay mechanic called Rage. With Rage, the more you're damaged, the more knockback you deliver. This can be both good and bad, as higher knockback means both easier KOs and combos that are harder to pull off. This doesn't completely remove what made Lucario unique, as the Aura Pokémon is still the only fighter that gets to modify properties of moves other than knockback.

Critical Status Buff / int_c0d295c4	comment	Team Fortress 2: When the Equalizer, an alternate melee weapon (a pickaxe) for the Soldier, was introduced, it boosted the Soldier's attack power and speed depending on how much his HP was lowered. The Pyromania Update in Spring 2012 reskinned the Equalizer and limited its effects to damage only, while simultaneously introducing a carbon-copy of the original Equalizer called the Escape Plan that sacrificed the attack upgrades for the speed ones (then later also had to deal with taking mini-crits when the weapon was out). Anyone who owned the Equalizer during the update got the convenience of a free Escape Plan for each Equalizer that they owned. One of the Sniper's unlockable melee weapons, the Shahanshah, inflicts 25% extra damage if the sniper's HP is below half. This example also inverts the trope when balancing the weapon as it deals 25% less damage when the user is above half health. The multi-class findable secondary weapon, the Panic Attack, used to have a unique mechanic where the player loads up their shots into the clip before firing them in quick succession after releasing the trigger, with considerably faster, but less accurate shots the lower the user's health. It was eventually reworked to be much closer to the standard shotgun, doing more damage spread over a larger number of bullets in exchange for becoming less accurate with successive shots.

Since some characters have odd-numbered hit point totals and a Phoenix Down revives your character at half health (rounding down), a clever player of the game's more brutal Self Imposed Challenges can double a character's speed almost all the time. Auron's ultimate weapon, the Masamune, gives him an attack power boost if he's missing more than half of his HP.

Critical Status Buff / int_f691fa67	comment	Hearthstone includes a number of effects for various classes and characters, and mechanics, that rely on a dangerous relationship with Health to gain advantages: The Warlock class has a ton of cards and abilites that Cast from Hit Points but offer them major boons: Their base Hero Power draws a card for 2 Health points, and has the potential to accumulate insane card advantage compared to the opponent as the game goes on and they lose Health. A number of their spells and minions actively damage them when played, in granting them greater statlines or effects than other cards of the same mana cost, or mana cheating of some kind, as they lower their Health (examples include the Flame Imp which deals 2 damage but is a greatly overstatted 1-drop, or the Bloodbloom spell that allows the Warlock to cast their next spell for Health instead of mana). Some minions embody this trope more directly, such as the Hooked Reaver which buffs itself if the Hero has 15 or less Health. Various deck archetypes of theirs, over the years, have relied on losing Health in order to gain board or card advantage. Handlock is probably the most well-known example: the deck, among other mechanics, encouraged damaging oneself in order to play Molten Giants, 20-Mana minions that reduce their cost depending on how much Health has been lost. Warriors also have a few effects that trigger the closer the Hero is to death, such as the card Mortal Strike, which deals 4 damage for 4 mana but upgrades to 6 when the Hero has 12 HP or less. Some archetypes attempt to remove their own deck as quickly as possible in order to gain an advantage of some kind. Examples include: Decks revolving around Mecha'thun, a 10/10 minion that, when it dies, instantly wins the player the game if their hand, deck and battlefield are empty; Similarly, decks that include cards triggering when the deck is empty, like Chef Nomi (who fills the board with huge minions) or Neeru Fireblade (a Warlock exclusive which opens a Portal that infinitely summons Demons); Decks utilizing Hakkar the Soulflayer or the Fatigue mechanic, which theoretically involve symmetrical damage for the players but, played correctly, can lead to the opponent taking a lot more damage; King Togwaggle or Tony King of Piracy, minions that swap both players' decks, leading to combos where one's entire deck is removed before swapping, thus killing the opponent with Fatigue.

Kingdom Hearts II introduces the ‘Experience Boost’ ability, which doubles experience earned by 100% when Sora’s health is below 50%. The ability was changed in Birth By Sleep and Dream Drop Distance to trigger at 25% health instead. 358/2 Days includes limit breaks. These allow you to enter a superpowered frenzy when you are low on health. If your health gets especially low, you can perform multiple limit breaks in a row. In order to prevent this from being completely overpowered, the health threshold required to use a limit break gets lower and lower the more it's used, although it can be brought back up with items. Also, you're not invulnerable during a Limit Break.

This creates an interesting choice, as the Knight has the ability to heal themself at almost any time, so they can (try to) pull out of the dangerous state at any time. This can create an interesting game of "Chicken" between fights and platforming. The charm also changes the Knight's animation, making them no longer look tired when at 1 HP. "Gruberfly's Elegy" normally gives the Knight a ranged attack only at full health, but when combined with "Fury of the Fallen" will also activate at 1 HP and be twice as strong.
