Noxious Plague

Description, attributes and patch history, in one place.

CURRENT GAME DATA

Infects an enemy with a plague that does damage on application then slows the target and deals damage over time based on their maximum health. When the debuff ends for any reason, all debuffs from Venomancer on the initial target and the plague are spread to nearby targets. Additional spreads beyond the first do not deal impact damage.

Lore

Deep in the heart of the jungles of Jidi, the seeds of extermination freely grow.

  • Ability reworked

  • No longer has AoE effect, now affects only the host

  • Now when the plague spreads, it also carries all debuffs placed by Venomancer

  • Doesn't stack. Applying plague to an already plague-infected unit will deal projectile damage again, but won't affect the remaining debuff duration. Duration of carried debuffs is fixed and cannot be altered with Status Resistance or Debuff Amplification

  • Duration decreased from 5s to 4s

  • Initial Damage decreased from 200/300/400 to 150/200/250

  • Initial Damage is now non-lethal

  • Now spreads a second time, but all spreads after the first one deal no initial damage

  • Spread Radius decreased from 800 to 700

  • Max HP as damage decreased from 3/4/5% to 2/3/4%

  • Now upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter

  • Decreases cooldown by 35s. Reduces Magic Resistance of affected units by 20% and allows additional spreads to deal initial damage
