Disease: Corruption Poisoning

All immaculate weapons and weapon skills inflict the disease Corruption Poisoning on the player. This disease can be cleared using a Hex Cleaner, a Fungal Clenser, or a Panacea. It does not inflict its negative effects when in safe areas such as cities.

• Corruption Poisoning (Gain 3% Corruption per minute. Burn 2 maximum health per minute.)

• Acute Corruption Poisoning (Gain 6% Corruption per minute. Burn 4 maximum health per minute.)

• Extreme Corruption Poisoning (Gain 9% Corruption per minute. Burn 6 maximum health per minute.)

Issue Tracking:

Mod Incompatabilities:

• Medicants: as it is in conflict with SideLoader_ExtendedEffects.

• Class Fixes: may interpret some of the weapons in this mod as the wrong weapon type.

Bugs (I haven't figured out how to resolve these yet):

• Bug which causes the Giantkind Crossbow and the Gold-Lich Cannon to fire multiple projectiles at once.

• Bug which causes Calixa's Gunmace to fire 3 projectiles instead of 2.

• Bug which causes the Gold-Lich Staff to hover above/below the hands of the player when in the sheathed position.

• Bug which causes the output_log.txt to be spammed by warnings regarding stacking behaviors of status effects.

• Bug which causes the output_log.txt to be spammed by imbue warnings as they cannot attach to some of the weapons properly. However, they work fine on a functional level and look normal.
