Status effects

Status effects are unique battle icons that indicate helpful, harmful, or neutral situations during Cog battles. Battle icons appear above the health interface for Cogs and the gag/reward selection interface for Toons. Status effects provide a description when hovered over and often contain a number to indicate the duration of the effect. For example, a status effect depicting a Lure icon with a "4" caused by the usage of Hypno-goggles means that Cogs are lured for the next four rounds.

Status effects applied to Cogs use a squared background, whereas Toons use a circular background.

Status effects

General

The following status effects can generally occur during most Cog battles throughout Toontown.

Status effect	Image	Description
Trapped		Trap gags deal damage against Cogs when sprung after Lure usage. Lure gags also have an additional 10% accuracy when an affected Cog is trapped.
Lured		Cogs cannot move and are awoken when damaged or when Lure expires. All gags targeting lured Cogs are guaranteed to hit, except for Drop. Throw and Squirt gags also deal 50% additional damage.
Remote Controlled (damage)		Controlled Cogs tell a bad joke and deal damage to other Cogs while also receiving damage upon expiration. The number of rounds, damage, and damage upon expiration vary depending on the tier of a damage remote.
Remote Controlled (healing)		Controlled Cogs perform a dance and heal Toons while also receiving damage upon expiration. The number of rounds, healing amount, and damage upon expiration vary depending on the tier of a healing remote.
Accuracy Down		Cogs Miss SOS Toons apply the effect to reduce the accuracy of Cogs' attacks by 75%. The number of rounds varies depending on the tier of a Cogs Miss SOS Toon.
Accuracy Up		Toons Hit SOS Toons apply the effect to increase the accuracy of Toons' gags by 75%. The number of rounds varies depending on the tier of a Toons Hit SOS Toon.
Reinforced Plating		Version 2.0 Cogs become Skelecogs when defeated and gain a turn to attack during the same round in which they become a Skelecog.
Unite Cooldown		Toon-Up and Gag-Up unites are subjected to a cooldown for 3 rounds when used by Toons.

The Boiler

The following status effects are exclusive to The Boiler in Sellbot Field Offices.

Status effect	Image	Description
Fired Up		The Boiler's attacks deal additional damage. Cogs receive 20% of Damage Up, which increases by 10% each time Fired Up begins.
Defensive Strategy		The Boiler retaliates if attacked and performs certain special moves that benefit the Cogs. Additional Cogs enter the battle until The Boiler reverts to being Fired Up.
Meltdown		The Boiler's "last leg" phase once their health reaches the red bar where they become permanently Fired Up and perform most of their attacks and special moves (excluding Stamp of Disapproval). Additional Cogs enter the battle until The Boiler is defeated.
