Contagion
Spell
AoE, Chaos, Duration, Repeatable
Tier: 1
Level: (1—20)
Requires: Level (1—90), (4—157) Int
Afflict a single enemy with a Debuff that deals Chaos damage over time. If the enemy dies while affected by Contagion, it spreads itself, Curses, and other Chaos damage over time Debuffs on the target to nearby enemies. This refreshes their durations. Reanimating or detonating a corpse affected by Contagion will cause the Minion or explosion to spread Contagion on hit.
Deals (1.9—93.9) Chaos damage per second
Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to Debuff's Damage over Time
Debuff deals 100% more Damage for each time it has spread, up to 300%
Spread radius is 1.7 metres
Debuff duration is 5 seconds
