I mean the curse damage was in the same range?

If not, then its something wrong in the developer comments, or at least what i understood of them.

I don't remember ohhhhhhhhhhhh gg I see where you're getting at, but I forget.

But that would make sense, since Fireball is the weaker skill, it "reflected" 60%. Lightning and Frost, stronger skill, "reflected" 40%. And Aimed Shot reflected ~5%. Makes sense now.

You meant that quote in the 6th post here? Or is it a better clarification somewhere with numbers?

sorry had to do it.. haha

i love this thread, but i feel that curse should reflect a percentage of dmg taken, same percentage for every attack/skill. that would put mages back in competition, at least twink wise.

Then it would be useless vs dot damage since dot damages are low. Also rogues will start to rage because they would die instantly after the first aim shot.

I think curse is good on low lvls too where a lot warrior with high armor - curse ignores armor - and high damage running around. I got a lvl7 warrior and curse really hurts. Ofc its just in clashes, no chance on 1-1.

Just to add two more interesting facts I observed but have yet to explain:
-If the damage is blocked by invulnerability, there is no damage reflect at all.
-Weirdly enough though, if you fire around at walls or nothingness (while cursed), it does reflect.

Noob question, what happens when you curse another curse user at the same time?

I'm guessing it'll just work the same for both sides? Idk ask Madnexnab he knows everything.

Ran a couple maps with a curse mage today. Lol but it works in pve better than I thought it would. Arachna cursed nicely as did mobs. Js

Yes its good against specific bosses with heavy poison dot like rutger and arachna, but i still belive in that mobs need to be stunned rooted and frozen if can.

I also dont like high HP build in pve.

Yes, if we get curse and performed an attack, we didn't received any damage right? while we hit nothing?
Do we received damage when get curse even the enemies that curse us already dead? (in case we didn't hitted by DoT skills upgrade)

I mean when our opponent didn't spell us with DoT skills upgrade. No enemies anymore.
The curse still reduce our health when we performed an attack even the enemies already dead?
and it happened when we performed an attack to none?

According to Madnex, that is correct.
