Lightning
Lightning describes electrical discharge, rapid potential change, and Current transfer through conductive paths.
Favorable in sanctioned battle Air about +15% damage → A damaging Lightning technique receives the favorable matchup once when the target carries the listed Current.
Resisted in sanctioned battle Earth about −15% damage → A damaging Lightning technique receives the resisted matchup once when the target carries the listed Current.
Native technique about +5% damage If a creature naturally carries Lightning, its damaging Lightning techniques receive a separate native-attunement benefit.
If a hit would otherwise deal 100 damage, a favorable matchup makes it roughly 115 and a resisted matchup makes it roughly 85. Attack, Defense, guarding, conditions, critical hits, and battle variance still affect the final number.
