Blight /6 ⍟
A channelled, area of effect chaos spell that applies a debuff to enemies. Debuffed enemies take chaos damage over time as well as having reduced movement speed.| Name | Show Full Descriptions |
|---|---|
| Controlled Destruction Support | Grants more spell damage but reduces critical strike chance. However, Blight cannot critically hit meaning Controlled Destruction gives more spell damage with no drawbacks. |
| Efficacy Support | Increases the damage over time and spell damage of Blight. The increased skill effect duration also increases the duration of Blight's debuff on enemies. |
| Swift Affliction Support | Decreases the total duration of Blight's debuff effect but compensates for this by increasing damage over time dealt by Blight. |
| Increased Area of Effect Support | Increases the area of effect of Blight allowing it to affect a greater number of targets at once. |
| Void Manipulation Support | Grants more chaos damage but lowers the elemental damage of Blight. Blight only deals chaos damage so Void Manipulation gives more damage at no drawback. |
| Increased Duration Support | Increases the duration of Blight's slow effect and chaos damage over time debuff on enemies. |
