Armor, Health and Rage

Armor

Armor currently appears to reduce the damage taken.

Health

Health can be topped up with Potions during combat.

Combat abilities also can heal over time (see Mentalism) or heal by a flat amount.

Rage

Rage is displayed in game by the little gauntlet icon. When the Rage meter is full, the enemy is able to use a special attack.

Many combat abilities allow controlling the enemy's rage build up. For example Psychoanalyse will slow down the rate at which the enemy builds rage, while Sword Parry will reduce the enemy's rage by a flat amount.
