Debuff

Pain Link

The Pain Link debuff causes the affected Champion to receive a percentage of all damage received by the enemy who placed this debuff. The enemy receives 100% of the damage inflicted to them.

The amount of damage received depends on the enemy who placed the debuff. If it was the Head of Suffering, then the Pain Link debuff causes the affected Champion to receive 15% of all damage received. If the Pain Link debuff was placed by a Champion, the damage received will be specified in that Champion's skill description. If it is not specified, it will cause the affected Champion to receive 15% of all damage received by the Champion who placed the debuff.

The Pain Link debuff can be blocked or removed, and can have its duration increased or decreased. Receiving a Pain Link debuff will awaken Champions under a Sleep debuff.

If a Champion is under both a Pain Link debuff and a Block Damage buff, they won't receive any damage from the Pain Link debuff.

A Champion under a Pain Link debuff won't receive any damage from it when the enemy who placed the debuff receives a weak hit.
