Damage Diffusion

 Damage Diffusion is a buff that partially reduces damage taken by the user, and distributes the remaining damage evenly across the rest of the team.

Mechanics

When activated, Damage Diffusion reduces the damage taken by the user by 50%, and the remaining 50% is distributed among the rest of the team. The user does not receive any damage.

Conditions to activate

While the user has the Damage Diffusion buff, the following conditions must be met in order for damage taken to be blocked.

• The user must take at least 2 damage from the hit.
• There must be at least one other adventurer in the team, not counting the user.
• The damage taken must NOT be the result of an affliction, nor can it come from debuffs such as Creeping Corrosion.

If any of the conditions above fail, Damage Diffusion will NOT activate, and the buff that grants it will NOT be consumed.

Diffused damage properties

Diffused Damage is the damage distributed to party members after Damage Diffusion is activated.

• Diffused Damage cannot be reduced, blocked, or dodged in any way, and ignores Shields and Life Shields.
• Diffused Damage can deal fatal damage if a teammate's HP is low enough, and the Diffused Damage is high enough.
