There are five attribute categories that most Medallions in The Rogue Prince of Persia fit into. I'll explain all of these Medallion attributes and how to use them in the Rogue Prince of Persia.
Every Medallion attribute in The Rogue Prince of Persia
26 of the 30 Medallions in the Rogue Prince of Persia can be sorted into one of these five Medallion attribute categories. The four that don't are combined into their own "other" category due to their unique abilities.
Poison
The Poison attribute creates a small, green cloud of poisonous gas when the Medallion's conditions are met. All enemies who touch this cloud will become poisoned. They will slowly take damage over a short time. The effect will continue so long as they are continuously re-poisoned. It's an easy way to chip at an enemy's health while protecting yourself from damage. Affected enemies will emit small green bubbles, like Berude does in the image above, and will have a similar symbol above their health bar.
There are seven Medallions with the Poison effect. Each has either "Poison" or "Toxic" in its name. They include:
- Neurotoxic Agent
- Sleight of Poison
- Toxic Counter
- Toxic Demise
- Toxic Projectile
- Toxic Shock
- Toxic Vault
Resin
The Resin effect appears as a dark purple ooze on the ground of the affected area. All enemies standing on the ooze will move slower than they usually do. Affected enemies have a small, dark cloud-shaped symbol above their health bar. It's a helpful effect against quick enemies. It's also useful for players who use slower weapons, like the Tabar.
All the Medallions with the Resin effect have the word "Sticky" in their name. There are five in total, including the following:
- Sticky Dive
- Sticky Kick
- Sticky Shield Breaker
- Sticky Sleight
- Sticky Vault
Daggers
Medallions with the Dagger effect will shoot Daggers at nearby enemies when their conditions are met. This will occur after doing a physical action directed at the afflicted enemy, like kicking or vaulting over them. These Daggers do additional, staggered damage to the enemies they hit.
Dagger Medallions have the word "Slicing" at the start of their name. The following three Medallions make up this group.
- Slicing Dive
- Slicing Kick
- Slicing Vault
Fire
Like the Poison attribute, the Fire attribute affects those who touch it. It does continuous damage to them while they stand in the flames, continuing for a short period after they have left them. Enemies on fire will have visible flames coming off of them, as well as a small fire symbol above their health bar.
All but one of the Medallions with the Fire effect have flaming in their name. All six Medallions that contain this effect are as follows:
- Flaming Dive
- Flaming Kick
- Flaming Projectile
- Flaming Shield Breaker
- Pyromaniac
- Ranged Flaming Counter
Healing
This category is broader since it consists of every Medallion that restores your health. While they do not share commonalities in name, they undeniably belong together in this category.
- Health Insurance
- Opportunity Knocks
- Restorative Dream Fragment
- Vampiric Demise
Other Medallions
This category encompasses all the Medallions that did not fit into the previous five categories. Some are relatively basic, while others have unique uses that stand out compared to the rest of the Medallions.
- Bloody Spoils - gives players coins for killing enemies.
- Immortal - Brings you back to life if you die.
- Paper Lion - increases the damage that players take and deal.
- Shield Breaker - Increases damage done to shields and restores energy points.
- Spartan - restores energy when an enemy is kicked into an obstacle.
