Blight



Blight is a damage over time effect, represented by a green drop. At the beginning of an affected hero's turn, they will take damage equal to the blight strength. Lasts for a specified amount of turns (accessible by hovering cursor over green drop). Blight placed upon a target by critical strikes lasts longer. Most blights in the game last for 3 turns, or 5 turns from a critical strike. Blight attacks can be stacked on top of each other for more damage per turn.

Can be removed with Antivenom, the Plague Doctor's Battlefield Medicine, the Grave Robber's Toxin Trickery, and the Hellion's Adrenaline Rush.

Can kill a character on Death's Door before they can use an antivenom on their turn. If out of combat, there will be a chance to use food or an antidote to prevent death.

Can be avoided by increasing blight resist.

Heroes with Blight skills:
 * Abomination

Trivia
According to the characters in-game, blight is excruciatingly painful and causes a burning sensation. It is unclear whether Blight actually burns the afflicted.
