Wither

Witch skill · Decay line · tier 4

Beta 0.7.2

The body forgets how to hold itself up.

It is only used in combat once it is placed on the hero's active bar, and its 10 s cooldown is before cooldown reduction.

Values by rank

Wither scales with Expose. Its value at each rank is 356 + 102 × rank:

Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Value	458	560	662	764	866	968	1,070	1,172	1,274	1,376
Expose	+4.58%	+5.6%	+6.62%	+7.64%	+8.66%	+9.68%	+10.7%	+11.72%	+12.74%	+13.76%

Expose is a percentage stat, so the value is used as written (in basis points, shown here as a percentage), times the skill power.

Expose = value × skill power
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Decay skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it

Mastery and synergies

Line mastery: every point in the other Decay skills makes Wither 1% stronger, up to +40% with all of them at rank 10. Its own points do the same for the rest of the line.

Wither has no synergies: no skill boosts it and it boosts no other skill.
