Alternia is a type of energy commonly found in crystals. This is the most common type of energy on Alterash Prime planets and is considered to be a middleground the between other types - Ceternia and Enternia.

Crystals with an overflowing amount of saturated alternia can be dangerous, as they are in a state of approaching a more unstable type of energy - Enternia. Areas with such saturation are referred to as Hevika.

Damage

Plasma is the main damage type produced by alternia. It's a subtype of Electric damage and is affected by Electric Resistance, but unlike its base type, it doesn't apply Electrified.
Instead, it applies different plasma effects, like Plasma Burn.

Plasma projectiles often have medium speed and behave similar to fire-based projectiles.

Additionally, negative aspects of most plasma effects can be reduced or blocked with Electric Status Immunity.
Can be accquired via the use of items, for example:
