Cooldown Sharing

The items listed above share their cooldowns;
Casting one of them puts them all on cooldown.

• The damage counter accumulates all damage instances dealt to the Soul Burn target within the last 5 seconds.
  • The accumulated damage is based on the actual damage taken, after all damage manipulation is applied.
  • Does not include damage with the HP Removal or the no-reflection flag (e.g. Blade Mail).
  • The damage is summed up into and applied as a single instance at the end of the duration, sourced to the caster of Soul Burn.

• The accumulated is only applied if the debuff expires naturally, it does not trigger if the debuff gets dispelled.
  • Re-casting Soul Burn on the same target refreshes the duration, but does not reset the already accumulated damage.

• The item's name is taken from the Orchid Malevolence from the video game Otogi: Myth of Demons.
• In Deadlock, the Focus Lens item may be inspired by Orchid Malevolence, both silencing the target enemy, and causing them to take damage at the end of the duration, based on how much damage they took while silenced.
