Surfer vs Mephisto

So in Surfer's info we see he takes -100% damage from a list of debuffs, which incinerate happens to be one of those listed.

Yet he still suffers damage from Mephisto's Aura of Incineration.

Seems kind of odd, any reason why this was overlooked...

    Surfer takes less damage from debuffs, mephisto deals incinerate damage via a passive on himself rather than a debuff

    Hey there, Silver Surfer is designed to take -100% damage from Coldsnap, Incinerate, and Shock Debuffs, but not from other forms of those effects. Mephisto's Aura of Incineration doesn't apply a Debuff but rather deals Incinerate Energy Damage to an opponent and so wouldn't be affected by Silver Surfer's resistances.

    It's the same with Unawakened Red Hulk - he turns Incinerate debuffs into heat charges, but takes normal damage from Aura of incineration.

    Thank you all for explaining it. Still doesnt add up, but hey, cant ask for everything to make sense...

    We are talking about a video game, full of comic characters. Carry on.

    I mean, it completely makes sense just by reading the abilities
