could you please refer your source, because the information i found states the exact opposite.

Read the skill function and interaction part.

Any monster based "take" modifier is multiplicative with the damage dealt, so a more multiplier to your base value.

Similar to

auguri of penitence from inquisitor.

I don't really have sources though, just realized i could find similar wording on these. I just "know" this from my own experience in-game.

So apologies if you expected a dev post or something :)

The wording utilized is usually the key to interpret these.(arguably, these nodes can still change before release or GGG can make exception rules)

Peace,

i've been looking for simliar wording, Taryn's Shiver for example, and it really seems to work like a multiplier. it just stacks additively with other effects that increase enemy damage taken. good to know...thx

Oy, yeah apologies that i missed that part :)

All monster based modifiers are added together in one value.

For a similar comparison look at player based "taken" sources, which behave in the same manner.

For example, abyssus states you "take" 40% increased physical damage, fortify on the other hands says you "take" 20% reduced damage. both value's are added and you get 20% increased physical damage taken.

At least that's how i assume it functions.(i love mechanics, but i base them on my experiences after reading up on them)

Peace,

-Boem-

edit : tl;dr profane bloom is still solid for a 2 pointer :)

Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes

My only problem with this is and correct me if im wrong please. A summoners minions can now no longer proc this explosion at all, where before it was a strong contender if not preferred by some over the necromancy tree, for more zombie damage builds apposed to specter builds,
