Question about the mechanics of this skill:

Do I take X% less damage from monster's Y damage attack?

Or Do monsters deal (100%-X%)Y damage?

I assume it's the second one. The only difference is the way it would interact with armor (because armor mitigates a higher % for lower damage).

Assuming monsters in fact deal less damage and crit for less, then this skill synergises with marauder/templar tanks very well.

You are correct, it's reducing the damage they deal.

Does this skill affect minions the same way when cursed?

If something curses you or your minions, it has the same effect on you as it would on a monster.

The wording was incorrect, but not for the reason you suggest - it was listed as less/more when it's actually reduced/increased.
It does apply to the critical strike multiplier as a whole - it's the opposite of the stat you can get on passives which increases your critical strike multiplier by a percentage.
I'll talk with Carl about whether we want to introduce a new stat for the curse that works differently.

UPDATE: We're adding a minimum cap on all critical strike multipliers - they can't be reduced below 100%. Carl may also look at the balance on enfeeble.

If it truly reduces spell damage, that text is misleading.

Fixed for a future patch. Enfeeble does indeed apply to all damage the cursed target would deal.
