Anomaly:

Although this skill is classified as a corruption skill, it does not interact with Master of Corruption.

Curses

• Master of Corruption — Corruptions gain reduced recharge time and inflict additional conditions on you.
• Parasitic Contagion — A percentage of your condition damage heals you. Healing will not occur while life force replaces health.

Death Magic

• Putrid Defense — Poison damage is increased. Applying poison grants carapace.
• Death Nova — When you or one of your minions is downed, create a Poison Nova. Summon a jagged horror when you kill a foe.

Blood Magic

• Vampiric — Siphon health whenever you hit a foe. Minions siphon health and transfer it to you.

Notes

• Distinct from the Death Nova explosion caused by Superior Rune of the Afflicted, which does not generate a combo field nor pulse.
