===Attack types===
==Quest Maps==
There are three different types of attacks: ''Normal'', ''Heavy'' and ''Special'', often abbreviated '''N''', '''H''', and '''S'''. While ''Heavy'' attacks deal more damage than ''Normal'' attacks, the damage from ''Special'' attacks is governed by the [[Weapons|weapons]] [[Special|special attack]].

</gallery>


A CK is a guaranteed kill within the three-hit combo. E.g. when the target can be killed with a ''Normal'', ''Heavy'', ''Special'' combo, it is denoted as ''NHS''. There can be any other combination and sequence of attacks, as long as the given combo kills the target. Sometimes a two-hit combo is sufficient, too.

===Combo Kill factors===
[[Category:Extermination Quests]]
Whether a CK can be performed depends on a multitude of factors: [[Class]], [[level]], equipment ([[weapons]], [[frames]], [[barriers]], [[Mag|mags]], [[units]]), [[monster]] [[stats]], and status effects and buffs like {{Paralysis}}, {{Freeze}}, {{Shifta}} or {{Zalure}}. A CK is often of interest when trying to figure out what [[attributes]] on a given weapon are needed to guarantee a kill. A certain amount of [[hit]] is often critical for the weapon to have enough [[accuracy]], preventing misses. Monster attributes on the weapon can be important too, as they increase the weapons damage output, but can be increased by [[Photon Sphere|sphering]].
 
===Combo Kill resources===
To figure out the CK potential on certain weapons, resources like tables and spreadsheets have been created providing an overview of what stats are needed to kill within a single combo. On most of these resources, the following assumptions are made:
* Max level (200)
* Max stats ([[ATP]], [[ATA]])
* [[Barriers|Barrier]]: {{Shield|rare|Red Ring}} for an additional +20 ATP and ATA
* [[Frames|Frame]] on [[Androids]]: {{Frame|rare|D-Parts ver1.01}} for an additional +35 ATP
** For the weapon {{Sword|rare|Diska of Braveman}}, the rare frame {{Frame|rare|Thirteen}} is assumed for its [[List of set effects#Slicers|set effect]]
* Fully [[Photon Sphere|sphered]] weapons: 100% in a monster [[attribute]]
* Lowest [[Game_mechanics#Physical_damage|ATP variance]]: many weapons can deal variable damage, but for consistency's sake, the lowest roll (i.e. worst RNG) is assumed
