Acquisition
Unlocked on the Tablet of Ruin Seasonal Artifact during Episode: Heresy.
Usage
When this perk is unlocked, Super abilities can receive a significant damage enhancement under specific conditions.
Activation Conditions
The 30% damage buff applies when casting a Super while:
- Critically Wounded: Player health is in the critical (red) range
- Elemental Buff Match: Player has an elemental buff that matches their Super element
Elemental Buff Examples
Solar Supers: Radiant buff
Arc Supers: Amplified buff 
Strand Supers: Woven Mail buff
Void Supers: Various Void buffs
Stasis Supers: Stasis-specific buffs
Damage Enhancement
- Provides a 30% increase to Super damage output
- The buff applies to the entire Super duration
- Significantly enhances boss damage and add-clearing potential
Strategic Applications
- Risk-reward gameplay: Players can intentionally stay at low health for the damage bonus
- Elemental synergy: Encourages builds that can reliably generate matching elemental buffs
- Timing consideration: Players must plan Super activation around buff windows
Build Integration
Limiting Break works particularly well with:
- Builds that can reliably generate elemental buffs
- High-risk, high-reward playstyles
- Exotic armor and weapons that enhance elemental buff generation
- Team coordination for buff application
This perk transforms Super activation from a simple ability use into a strategic decision that can significantly impact damage output when properly utilized.
