Vulnerability Hex

Vulnerability Hex is a mage spell from the Entropy tree in Dragon Age: Origins.
== Information ==
* Resistance Penalties (Duration: 20s):
** Elemental: (100.0 + Spellpower) * 0.3.
** Mental: 20.
* Spell Combinations: Improved Drain.
* Range: 25m.
* Conjuration time: 1s.
* 10 Threat is drawn from the target.
== Notes ==
* Activation base is in and values vary with fatigue%.
* Elemental resistances are capped at 75% in Origins and 85% in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening.
* Targets can be debuffed to negative resistance values with a hard cap of -100%. E.g. at -50% resistance the damage will be 1.5x; at -100% the damage will be 2x, this means that with a spellpower of 234 or higher the full hard cap is achieved using just this power, eliminating the need to use Affliction Hex in a boss scenario. (easily possible in Awakening).
* Stacks with Affliction Hex.
* Currently active spells which cause damage over a period of time such as Walking Bomb or Crushing Prison are not enhanced. The Hex needs to be cast before.
* The spell can be cast on creatures or locations not in line of sight.
* Arcane Warrior spellcasting: This spell requires casting with weapons sheathed.
* Because Shale's damage is mostly elemental based, Vulnerability Hex and Affliction Hex also benefits Shale's damage.
