How to learn
Notes
- Due to the resistance granted by this passive, fractional damage received by the wielder is rounded down and they take only 0~3Necrotic damage. However, nearby allies take full damage.
- The area of effect is centred on the creature that is hit, and the radius is 2 m / 7 ft.
- This feature is particularly useful against groupings of low-hit-point enemies that may otherwise have many opportunities to score critical hits against the party.
- If
Lae'zel is in the party while fighting the murder of 
Shadow-Cursed Ravens on the Ruined Battlefield in Act Two at X: 30 Y: 114, the area of effect damage from this passive may easily earn the 
Soldier's 
Pentacrush Inspiration, without taking any damage in the process.
Bugs
- Creatures close to the one struck by this weapon take damage every time, but those on the border of its AoE radius sometimes do not.
