• Resistance
• Threat
• The number of stack of any stackable buff
• The amount of another alteration node from the same editor

Basic Mode

Value: Input Field: In basic mode, an alteration can affect a variable by adding the amount specified in this field to it.

Armor Piercing: Toggle: If the alteration is armor piercing it ignores the resistance of the target. This is used only when the effect is affected the health negatively.

Generate Threat: Toggle: If this alteration targets an entity's health, you can automatically affect the caster threat as well by checking this box. If the health is affected negatively, the threat of the caster to the target will increase by the value of the alteration. If it is affected positively, the threat will increase for all the enemies, regardless of the target.

Threat Factor: Input Field: The threat generating can be multiplied by factor specified here.
