Fire + Poison = Chain Reactions

A new elemental interaction has been added to Overclocked Arena.

When fire comes into contact with poison, it now triggers an explosive reaction that leaves behind a poisonous fire zone.

How it works

  • Poison + fire creates an explosion on contact

  • The explosion leaves behind a lingering poisonous flame

  • Enemies inside the area take both poison and fire damage over time

  • Reactions can ignite other nearby poison surfaces

More Dynamic Combat

This new interaction adds another layer of strategy to your runs.

Instead of relying on a single damage type, combining different effects can lead to powerful chain reactions — especially when enemies are grouped together.

Positioning and timing now play a bigger role in maximizing damage.

What’s Next

This is part of an ongoing effort to expand combat variety and create more interesting build combinations.

More interactions and mechanics are already in development.
