Cursed Inferno

Cursed Inferno is a Hardmode debuff that prevents health regeneration and causes the afflicted entity to take damage each second for the duration of the debuff. Players are dealt 12 damage per second, while enemies are dealt 24 damage per second. Additionally, affected enemies also take 10% more knockback (see Knockback § Formula for details).

If the afflicted target is Oiled(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), they will take 25 additional damage per second, totaling 49 damage per second to enemies or 37 damage per second to players.
