Crazed Dragon Virus
– This virus infects you if attacked by an already infected Tigrex.
– Gauge appears below the player’s name. This gauge increases when attacked by Tigrex and with the passage of time.
– Crazed dragon illness outbreaks when the gauge completely fills. Natural recovery gauge (presuming this is stamina?) also disappears.
– Can remove this harmful effect by repeatedly attacking Tigrex before the gauge fills.
– Weapon’s critical hit ratio greatly increases if you manage to remove the virus.
Gore Magala
– If its moth powder sticks to you it makes it easier for Gore Magala to detect you. This powder also has a harmful effect to body/movement ability.
