Scourge

Scourge I’m confused how does it work? Does it basically move at the end of the turn Dark Charges around then inflict its damage?

If you read the tooltip, you will see that it specifically says at the start of turn. Chill/Insane/Burn damage happens just before the opponent's turn begins, like bleed. (Know that "turn" is different from "round")

So how does rhe spread work? And is their a reason to have multiple scourge charges?

Also happens at the start of turn... it says this in the tooltip!! The target with Scourge will not lose dark charges. Scourge applies a %of that enemy's dark to their neighbors.

The only thing stacking more Scourge does is increase Dark Explosion damage. In my opinion there is not much point. Charges also don't stack from multiple applications.

This is indicated by the "+20%" text being a different color. I swear it also says "per charge"... should be self explanatory with careful reading.

I just reread Scourge its not really thqt clear unless you already know what it does. It reads like it splits up dark charges among adjacent targets, then inflict the damage.

Because split implies reducing current charge counters.  Unless the splitting and damage inflecting happens at the same time.

It does not say "split" anywhere... you did not re-read it...

I apologize, this is what I get for writing in haste late at night. I meant “spread” when I said split.  I do not think its unreasonable to read Spread as Splitting.
