    Vulnerability

    Vulnerability is a hex Spell that curses all targets in an area, making them take increased physical damage and granting hits dealt on the cursed targets a chance to apply bleed. Ailments applied to cursed targets will deal its damage faster.

    Skill functions and interactions

    • Cursed enemies take increased damage: Because these modifiers are an increase to the target's damage taken, they are multiplicative with attacker's damage dealt and additive with any other effects to damage taken on the defender.
    • Vulnerability can be turned into an aura by linking it with either Blasphemy Support or Awakened Blasphemy Support.
