	Defense ignoring abilities are damage dealing abilities that partially or wholly ignore at least one defense skill.

	There are several specific types of such abilities:
	*Shield ignoring: (a.k.a. [[page type is::definition\|death from above]], DFA) Targets do not get to use their shield to defend against the attack, but make use of 130% of their {{skill\|Evasion}} to compensate. DFA spells also do slightly reduced base damage.
	*Armor piercing: These are a type of spell that ignore a portion of a target's armor at the expense of slightly reduced base damage.
	*Armor ignoring: These are abilities that ignore a portion or all of a target's armor.

	Variations of abilities that ignore shield, armor, or other defenses that are combinations of the above mechanics or do not use the above specific mechanics do exist, and details about them can be found on each ability's page.
