Aftershock is an Invention perk that deals additional area-of-effect (AoE) damage for every 50,000 damage the player deals. The damage dealt is up to 40% weapon damage per perk rank. It can be created in weapon gizmos.
When triggered, Aftershock deals auto-attack damage in a 3x3 area around the targeted monster. The damage dealt is auto-attack type, and has 100% accuracy regardless of the targeted monster's defence level, armour value and affinities. Much like monsters indirectly hit by Corruption Shot or Blast, monsters damaged by Aftershock do not become aggressive towards the player that caused it.
Unequipping the perked weapon or switching to a different weapon without the perk resets the stored damage to zero. Switching to a different weapon with Aftershock of any rank prevents the damage stored from resetting.
In Player-versus-player (PvP) situations, the required damage is halved alongside the damage it deals. As Aftershock's damage counter is retained as long as weapons with the perk are equipped, players can tag monsters to start the charging process. A player can deal 40,000 Player-versus-Monster (PvM) damage and any amount of PvP damage to trigger Aftershock.
The damage given by each respective rank of the perk, as a proportion of weapon damage, is as follows:
| Rank | Player-versus-Monster (PvM) | Player-versus-Player (PVP) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Damage Range | Average Damage | Damage Range | Average Damage | ||
| 1 | 24-39.6% | 31.8% | 8-23.6% | 15.8% | |
| 2 | 48-79.2% | 63.6% | 16-47.2% | 31.6% | |
| 3 | 72-118.8% | 95.4% | 24-70.8% | 47.4% | |
| 4 | 96-158.4% | 127.2% | 32-94.4% | 63.2% | |
Despite the tooltip text, the damage from Aftershock cannot hit the maximum listed percentage (40% per rank) as the damage range from Aftershock only goes in intervals of 0.4%. For example, an ability damage burst from Aftershock will either deal 32% AoE damage or 32.4% but never in between.
