What Triggers Bullets of Mercy Bonus Damage?¶
The OC's in game description states that
Bullets of Mercy in-game description
Deal bonus damage to burning, stunned, electrocuted, frozen, or poisoned targets.
However, that's not entirely clear. We dug through the game's assets, which lists:

Warning
The previous list is a whitelist, any status effects and target states not listed will not enable Bullets of Mercy bonus damage.
Notably,
- Turret Arc status effect will not enable BoM bonus damage. This is likely an oversight...
