Damage Resistance

In Foxhole each weapon can deal a specific amount of damage, however how much of that damage is actually dealt to the target depends on the target's nature and its resistance to particular Damage Types.

Infantry

Soldiers receive the full damage amount regardless of the type.

The only exception is for Light Kinetic damage received at range when wearing an Armour Uniform (up to -33% damage for colonial uniform and up to -50% for the warden one when beyond 30m).

Vehicles

The damage a vehicle receives depends on the damage type and the vehicle's resistance type (unrelated to Tank Armour). All vehicles in a specific vehicle class (e.g. Armored Car) share the same resistance type.

They are notably very resistant to the Light Kinetic, Heavy Kinetic, and Shrapnel damage types. Every weapon and ammo with those types deals only 1 point of damage to them.

They are notably very resistant to the Light Kinetic, Heavy Kinetic, and Shrapnel damage types. Every weapon and ammo with those types deals only 1 point of damage to them. They are really resistant to Anti-Tank Kinetic damage type. They're vulnerable to Armour Piercing and High Explosive damage types.

Ship types:

Barge

• Freighter

• Gunboat

Large Ships have the "Tier1LargeShip" resistance:

-99%

-93%

-70%

They are very resistant to the Light Kinetic, Heavy Kinetic, Shrapnel, and Anti-Tank Kinetic damage types. Every weapon and ammo with those types deals only 1 point of damage to them. They're also fairly resistant to Armour Piercing damage type. Only High Explosive damage type (Artillery) is very effective against them.

Large Ship types:
Base Ship • Battleship • Light Frigate • Destroyer • Resource Ship • Storage Ship • Submarine

Vehicle Tiers

Vehicles of a higher tier get an additional damage mitigation applied across the board regardless of damage type. After the resistance type mitigation is applied, the damage is reduced by 10% for Tier 2 and 20% for Tier 3. This is equivalent to Tier 2 having 11% more health, and Tier 3 25%. Prototype vehicles get a 25% damage increase. This additional resistance won't be taken into account in the resistance table below.

Structures

Each structures has a resistance type (not shown in-game) that defines how well it resists each damage type. With very few exceptions, structures are either highly resistant or immune to anti-tank weaponry Anti-Tank Kinetic Armour Piercing Anti-Tank Explosive and small arms fire Light Kinetic Shrapnel , and they are always vulnerable to Demolition Demolition damage. The structure resistance types mostly differ on how much they resist Explosive Explosive , High Explosive High Explosive , Incendiary High Explosive Incendiary High Explosive , and Heavy Kinetic Heavy Kinetic damage types.

Devastation

Additionally the devastation of the land a structure is on can increase the damage it receives across all damage types, virtually decreasing its maximum health. This effect won't be taken into account in the resistance table below.
