Buffs

Buffs are Status Effects that positively affect player or enemy stats. They are divided into Body Buffs and Weapon Buffs, and Buffs of the same type may not always stack with each other. Attempting to stack Buffs that do not stack with another will override them with the new effect. All forms of Buffs stack with equipment effects, such as the effects of Rings.

Note: Buffs will never stack with themselves, E.G. Power Within will just override the previous Power Within.

Body Buffs

Body Buffs are effects applied to the player, and stack with Weapon Buffs or may often stack with others of the same type.

Consumables

Consumable Body Buffs will stack with Spell and Skill Body Buffs, but almost never with other Consumable Body Buffs.
