Missing tooltip
- Places a debuff on the target, which applies the damage upon expiring. The debuff lasts seconds.
- Due to server tick rates, the debuff effectively lasts 0.033 seconds. It is not possible to have a 0-second duration modifier or effect delay.
- This means the damage can be avoided by being invulnerable or hidden as the debuff expires.
- Multiple instances of the stack, with each cast placing its own separate modifier. They do not interefere with each other.
- Energy Burst first applies the damage, the damage as heal, then the spell lifesteal.
- On level 5, the sound effect additionally plays on the target, using the Ultimates mixgroup.
