NameShow Full Descriptions
Controlled Destruction SupportGrants more spell damage but reduces critical strike chance. However, Blight cannot critically hit meaning Controlled Destruction gives more spell damage with no drawbacks.
Efficacy SupportIncreases 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 SupportDecreases the total duration of Blight's debuff effect but compensates for this by increasing damage over time dealt by Blight.
Increased Area of Effect SupportIncreases the area of effect of Blight allowing it to affect a greater number of targets at once.
Void Manipulation SupportGrants 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 SupportIncreases the duration of Blight's slow effect and chaos damage over time debuff on enemies.
