Enemy Immunities
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Some enemies in Noita have built-in protections to certain kinds of damage or status effects. This is usually separate to their damage multiplier stats, which can also confer partial or conditional immunity to certain damage types. Immunities generally mean that under no or very limited circumstances will the damage or effect apply to the enemy.
Some of these immunities are similar or identical to Perks available to you, while others are not accessible to you at all.
(Note: Several of the icons used to denote immunities in this page are mock-ups created for ease of display and are not present in the actual game, while others are borrowed from unused icons, or perk icons for player immunities.)
