Physical damage is one of the three subtypes of damage in League of Legends. Physical damage is dealt by all unmodified basic attacks and by a portion of all damaging spells from champions, items, runes, and buffs.

Statistics influencing physical damage[]

Physical damage spells commonly scale off of Health icon health and/or the offensive statistics Attack damage icon attack damage and Ability power icon ability power, but other scalings may also be used. Some champions who deal physical damage may have damaging effects that scale off of Critical strike chance icon critical strike chance and Critical strike damage icon critical strike damage, or are able to critically strike altogether (critical strikes are not exclusive to physical damage, however).

Life steal icon Physical vamp provides healing based on a percentage of physical damage dealt.

Life steal icon Life steal provides healing based on a percentage of Basic Attack basic damage dealt: while the majority of basic damage effects are physical damage sources, this only indirectly associates life steal with physical damage. See the statistic's article for other interactions.

Armor icon Armor mitigates received physical damage by a percentage. The effectiveness of Armor icon armor can be reduced by Armor penetration icon armor penetration.
