A Power-Up that yields temporary boost in speed, power, or damage for a character. Most common in the First-Person Shooter, Third-Person Shooter, and melee fighting games. A mild version of the Invincibility Power-Up, and cousin to the Nitro Boost and Sprint Shoes. Usually a Timed Power-Up. Often accompanied by some sort of conspicuous glow or aura that lets players know who has the power up. Some Competitive Multiplayer games let the player pickup the Quad Damage after killing the player who holds it. These factors tend to make the player holding the Quad Damage a priority target. Attack Speed Buff is a Sub-Trope. |

Eternal Darkness has a Functional Magic spell (Enchant Item) provides a boost of attack power to any weapon, but only if you cast the spell using the alignment that beats the enemy's in Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors. Using the wrong alignment will either result in a very tiny bit of extra damage, or hardly any damage at all. The Mantorok rune provides bonus damage against absolutely everything. | |

Final Fantasy VII features the Quadra Magic Materia, which lets you cast a spell from an attached Materia four times consecutively (but with a weaker power, usually about 75%). There is also the 4x Attack Materia (the second tier of the 2x Attack Materia), which like the Offering from VI changes the standard Attack command into multiple attacks. The 2x version always just attacks the same target twice, but the 4x will randomly select enemy targets for every hit after the first. Very useful against one big enemy, but a sometimes a mixed blessing against groups or in tactical situations where the player wants to avoid attacking a specific enemy (like trying to catch a Chocobo). The other issue when facing groups is that the targeting seems to be determined before the damage is dealt, so the attacks will sometimes be spent doing massive overkill to one weak enemy in the group instead of spreading the pain around when a single hit could wipe out each of them. | |

Grand Theft Auto - At several points in III and Vice City, you can find an "adrenaline pill". If you pick it up, everything slows to a crawl for a brief time, and when you punch anyone, they literally go flying twenty or so feet backwards, usually dying on impact. Unfortunately, the pill cannot be picked up and used somewhere else, so its effectiveness is somewhat limited. This can be enabled by a cheat without the everything-slowing-down side effect. The results are hilarious. Grand Theft Auto 2 had some "Fast Reload" and "Double Damage" pickups, which do exactly what they say. |

Serious Sam has the Serious Damage Power-Up, an emblem with the game's grinning bomb logo that doubles Sam's firepower while active, for 40 seconds in The First Encounter and 60 in The Second Encounter. To others, the player with Serious Damage glows a purple-red, and in the HD remake of TSE, the screen gains a fire effect around the edges and Sam looks like he's made of lava. | |

The Spirit Command "Valor" in the Super Robot Wars series, which doubles the damage. The original Japanese name for it is "Nekketsu" which of course means "Hot Blood". Several of the "Official" games in the series (i.e.: those that have licensed series'), also has "Soul", which raises the damage to 2.5 (or, in older games, to 3x). | |

Overwatch lacks consumable power-ups (aside from health packs), but a few ultimate abilities evoke this concept: Orisa's first ultimate ability was "Supercharger", where she plants down a drum-like device that continuously boosts the damage of herself and any ally within its range and direct line of sight. It could be shot down by enemies, but whether that's the correct thing to shoot at was definitely very context-dependent. Baptiste's ultimate is "Amplification Matrix", where he projects a rectangular field that doubles the damage and healing of almost everything he and his allies shoots through it. Unlike "Supercharger", it cannot be shot down, so if Baptiste opens up the window and you see an enemy through it, fire away. Kiriko's ultimate "Kitsune Rush" has her send out a fox spirit to blitz forward, leaving behind a trail marked by holographic stepping stones and torii gates. When she and her allies are standing on it, they gain a massive boost in firing speed, movement speed, reload speed, and accelerated cooldowns. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: The Pieces of Power are pickups that occasionally drop from slain enemies and have the effect of doubling your damage output for as long as you stay on the current "screen". There are also Guardian Acorns, which function similarly except that they halve the damage you receive. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: The Elixir Soup doubles Link's attack power until the next time he is hit by an enemy or hazard. The Fairy Tears and Rare Chu Jelly have a similar effect in Twilight Princess, but only for a few seconds. |

Doom: The original Doom has an item called Berserker Pack, a black medkit which not only allows players to do as much damage with their fists as they would with the rocket launcher, but also make them rip and tear enemy guts. Two extra benefits are that the punching power boost lasts until the end of the level, and the Pack itself is the third most powerful healing item in the game, working as a full heal up to 100 health. The second power gained for the Artifact in Doom³: Resurrection of Evil is Berserk, a massive damage boost while the Artifact is in use. Doom (2016) has an actual Quad Damage power up (sans Quake logo but with the original sounds) that's usable in both single and multiplayer, as well as the classic Berserker Pack. An interesting tidbit is that in single player under the Berserker Pack's effects, every monster, even with full health, can be killed by a Glory Kill, so with the rune increasing Glory Kill initiation radius, the Doom Slayer can chain-kill dozens of enemies in rapid succession without actually caring for movement. No wonder demons are terrified of him. Doom Eternal has it return for the game, now renamed Onslaught. Other than the name change, it's functionally identical to Quad Damage. With one of the findable "Cheat Codes", you can turn the feature on for an entire mission. |

Final Fantasy VI had an item that did this for weapons - the Offering turned the typical Attack option into four successive attacks. It's also possible to simultaneously equip the Genji Glove to hold two weapons at once and get four attacks with each one. At high levels this is sufficient damage to kill any non-physical-immune enemy you encounter including the final boss. Particularly if one of the weapons being uses it Ragnarok or Illumina, which each have a fairly high chance of casting a strong spell (for no MP cost) when swung. | |

Painkiller used the Black Tarot mechanic, where players could complete optional challenges in levels to get new cards, which were places using gold collected in the levels. Two types of cards, Silver and Golden cards. Silver cards were permanent, meaning they lasted through the entire level, but there were only two slots for them. Golden cards had three slots, and could be activated one per level. (More with the right Silver cards.) In fact, one of these is a literal quad damage card, and with a card that doubles your attack speed, it's possible to get effective octuple damage. There's also a skull powerup which temporarily removes many weaknesses of many weapons (for an example, making shotgun accurate). |

Common in Final Fantasy games: Final Fantasy VI had an item that did this for weapons - the Offering turned the typical Attack option into four successive attacks. It's also possible to simultaneously equip the Genji Glove to hold two weapons at once and get four attacks with each one. At high levels this is sufficient damage to kill any non-physical-immune enemy you encounter including the final boss. Particularly if one of the weapons being uses it Ragnarok or Illumina, which each have a fairly high chance of casting a strong spell (for no MP cost) when swung. Final Fantasy VII features the Quadra Magic Materia, which lets you cast a spell from an attached Materia four times consecutively (but with a weaker power, usually about 75%). There is also the 4x Attack Materia (the second tier of the 2x Attack Materia), which like the Offering from VI changes the standard Attack command into multiple attacks. The 2x version always just attacks the same target twice, but the 4x will randomly select enemy targets for every hit after the first. Very useful against one big enemy, but a sometimes a mixed blessing against groups or in tactical situations where the player wants to avoid attacking a specific enemy (like trying to catch a Chocobo). The other issue when facing groups is that the targeting seems to be determined before the damage is dealt, so the attacks will sometimes be spent doing massive overkill to one weak enemy in the group instead of spreading the pain around when a single hit could wipe out each of them. Final Fantasy VIII has Rinoa's 'Angel Wing' limit, which places the spellcaster equivalent of a Berserk status effect on Rinoa. While under the effects of Angel Wing, she uses a randomly selected spell each turn, at five times her normal power. With the right setup, you can completely eliminate the random factor, and get her to exclusively cast Meteor, allowing her to inflict an average of 60,000 damage per turn. It's Awesome, but Impractical, though, as it requires stripping her of all other offensive magic (both damage-dealing and status-inflicting), meaning she won't be able to junction as effectively as her fellow party members. In Final Fantasy IX, Steiner's Trance doesn't give him a new ability like every other character gets, but triples his attack power. The Dancer class in Final Fantasy V has an opportunity out of four to use "Sword Dance" when using the Dance ability (boosted to a 50% chance when wearing certain equipment). Sword Dance quadruples the damage of the standard attack, stacks with the already-powerful Sword Magic, and never misses (unless the target is immune to element/status of the Sword Magic). It doesn't trigger the added effects of weapons, making the Chicken Knife an excellent choice. Also from V, Sword Magic. First-level elemental magic (and poison) hitting a weakness can deal double damage and ignore defense, second level deals triple the damage, and third level magic (as well as Bio and Holy) deal precisely four times the damage - if the enemy is a Heavy-type monster, otherwise, it deals instant death disregarding immunity to One-Hit Kill abilities. Flare Sword enhances damage and cuts down defense against it to one fourth of its nominal value, becoming this trope in a slightly indirect way. Also from V, the Apollo Harp, which does octuple damage to dragons and the undead. Notably, the Chemist job can create a Dragon's Kiss, which gives the target heavy status, but also makes them a dragon, including being weak to the Apollo Harp. This works on enemies. That previous sentence includes the final boss. |

In Pokémon, several moves have the effect of boosting the Pokemon's attack, special attack, speed, or critical hit rate. These stat boosts only last until the player switches Pokemon. There are also a few items (X-items, berries, etc) that can give the same temporary stat boosts, though most held items have effects that last the whole battle. | |

Unreal has a modal battery-like amplifier as an inventory item, which only affects energy weapons (the ASMD shock rifle and the Dispersion Pistol). Combined with the fully-upgraded Dispersion Pistol, you could fire Painfully Slow Projectiles that would one-hit kill anything in the retail version of the game (it was nerfed in later builds to only one-shot a Skaarj Lord, which is still powerful but not broken). Amplified shots with the ASMD have a reddish-orange effect instead of the usual blue+ an effect that was recycled for the Instagib shock rifles in Unreal Tournament. | |

In Drakengard, the black orb dropped as a reward for a large-enough Combo grants you a massive damage boost, with a black-and-red trail from your weapon being the visual cue. | |

Team Fortress 2: A Critical Hit deals 300% of the attack's base damage. While the power up that guarantees them is only available in Mannpower mode and in Scream Fortress (around Halloween or in custom servers), it can also be triggered in regular play with a Medic's Kritzkrieg über. Certain usable items can also grant brief moments of crits or mini-crits (135% base damage), with the Scout being their most notable user. The Crit-a-Cola gives you infinite mini-crits for a brief amount of time, but also causes any hits landed on you to become mini-crits. The Heavy has the KGB (Killing Gloves of Boxing), which briefly give guaranteed crits to all his weapons when he kills an enemy with a punch. He can also consume the Buffalo Steak Sandvich to gain a boost to damage for 15 seconds in the form of unlimited mini-crits as well as a speed buff that boosts his speed above all other classes save the Medic and the Scout, but at the cost of only using his melee attacks and taking a higher amount of damage as well. |

In Minecraft, the Strength status effect boosts the recipient's melee damage, with dark red swirls emanating from the creature or player in question being a visual cue. For part of the game's history, Strength would boost the player's melee damage by (130 * level)%note (allowing just shy of quadrupled damage at Strength II), whereas at present it merely adds a set amount to any attack. Inverted with the Weakness status effect, which decreases melee damage dealt. |

Blood has the Guns Akimbo powerup. It allows you to fire two weapons at once, doubling your firepower. It's restricted to only a select few basic weapons in the core game, but with the Plasma Pak you can dual wield even Napalm and Tesla Cannons. Blood II goes for the more standard Talismans, one of which is "The Anger", which triples your damage and sounds like an avalanche or earthquake while active. | |

Quake: The Trope Namer is the eponymous item from the franchise, which does exactly what the name implies (except in Quake III: Arena, where it only triples the damage). In Quake III: Team Arena there's the Doubler rune, which can be combined with the Quad Damage in order to deal 6x damage. Enjoy your easy Excellent awards! In Quake II, Quads are an inventory item that can be saved up for use whenever you'd like (which would lead to a lot of hoarding until a later patch made players capable of carrying only two). The two Expansion Packs, The Reckoning and Ground Zero, added respectively the Dualfire Damage (doubles your rate of fire) and the more basic Double Damage. The final boss of Ground Zero is having none of your hoarding, though: she'll activate an Invulnerability that'll last until your damage boost expires, so you can only use it to wipe out the Stalkers she summons. |

TAGAP has a Quad Damage powerup which causes your weapon to fire 4x the usual number of bullets per shot. The manual lampshades the improbability of these kind of powerups, stating that it is "based on alien technology and obviously designed after spending too many nights at the arcade, so stop asking how it works, okay?" | |

The 2*Damage utility from Worms not only doubles damage, but also doubles the blast radius and launching power of the chosen weapon. If you have a Super Weapon on hand, you can easily destroy a third of the map on that turn, along with either overkilling or drowning any worms there. | |

Diablo III gives players the Power Pylon in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts, which quadruples all damage that the Player Character and their hirelings/pets do for thirty seconds. While there's only one Power Pylon per rift (if that), finding one is usually enough to clear through a few packs of Elites in seconds. | |

Trigger Knight has the Divine Edge, which multiplies damage by 10,000%! The catch is that it lasts only for your very next attack, you have to buy it, and it replaces the slot for your healing Elixir. But it's the only way to stand a reasonable chance against a dragon. | |

Unreal: The UDamage/Damage Amplifier, a floaty-rotatey gold or purple double-damage powerup vaguely in the shape of the letter U or the Skaarj's Razik, depending on the game. Unreal has a modal battery-like amplifier as an inventory item, which only affects energy weapons (the ASMD shock rifle and the Dispersion Pistol). Combined with the fully-upgraded Dispersion Pistol, you could fire Painfully Slow Projectiles that would one-hit kill anything in the retail version of the game (it was nerfed in later builds to only one-shot a Skaarj Lord, which is still powerful but not broken). Amplified shots with the ASMD have a reddish-orange effect instead of the usual blue+ an effect that was recycled for the Instagib shock rifles in Unreal Tournament. Unreal Tournament 2003 introduced the adrenaline meter. When filled, by your actions or by finding pickups, it allowed a player to enter a button combo for a specific bonus, with Berserk coming closest to the trope since it increases your rate of fire with all weapons and the amount of knockback they deal to enemies. |

The original Doom has an item called Berserker Pack, a black medkit which not only allows players to do as much damage with their fists as they would with the rocket launcher, but also make them rip and tear enemy guts. Two extra benefits are that the punching power boost lasts until the end of the level, and the Pack itself is the third most powerful healing item in the game, working as a full heal up to 100 health. | |

Final Fantasy VIII has Rinoa's 'Angel Wing' limit, which places the spellcaster equivalent of a Berserk status effect on Rinoa. While under the effects of Angel Wing, she uses a randomly selected spell each turn, at five times her normal power. With the right setup, you can completely eliminate the random factor, and get her to exclusively cast Meteor, allowing her to inflict an average of 60,000 damage per turn. It's Awesome, but Impractical, though, as it requires stripping her of all other offensive magic (both damage-dealing and status-inflicting), meaning she won't be able to junction as effectively as her fellow party members. | |

Heretic features the Tome of Power, which not only powers up all your weapons, but changes the way they function. This can either enhance the regular fire* the Staff hits harder and can hit ghosts, the pistol-like Elven Wand shoots out a shotgun-like spread of pellets with two projectiles on the sides and the Ethereal Crossbow in the page image above shoots out more projectiles per shot; in the latter cases the powered weapon fires slightly faster or make the weapon do something completely different* the machine gun-like Dragon Claw shoots out a pixel-accurate burst that sends spike balls flying in all directions, the Hellstaff launches a homing magic ball that explodes and creates a damaging rain that lasts a few seconds, the Phoenix Staff turns into a flamethrower which only consumes 1 ammo per five seconds that has the most efficient damage in the game, and the Firemace shoots out huge magical spheres that home in on creatures, are a One-Hit Kill on non-boss opponents, and can even Tele-Frag if they go through teleporters; in all cases, the weapons except the Phoenix Staff shoot much slower than in regular fire and consume more ammo per shot. | |

The Smash Ball in the Super Smash Bros. series, which allows a character to perform a Final Smash, is like this. In particular: Bowser and Wario's Final Smashes are both temporary Quad Damage effects with Bowser's being a large increase in reach and knockback and Wario's being a large increase in speed and mobility. R.O.B.'s Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl is like this too, giving him constant laser eyes for a little while. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, Lucario gains the ability to transform into Mega Lucario instead of using Aura Storm, and newcomer Little Mac can turn into Giga Mac for his Final Smash. |
