Demonflame is life loss, not damage. As a result when taking [[Mind Over Matter]], the loss is not first mitigated by mana. When taking [[Eternal Youth]], the recharge is interrupted.

Demon Form is a shapeshifting skill granted by the Infernalist ascendancy notable Demonic Possession that allows the player to Shapeshift into a Demon. While transformed, you gain a large bonus to spellcasting, but lose life over time. While transformed, you gain stacks of Demonflame over time, which increases spell damage but causes life loss over time.

Skill functions and interactions

Shapeshifting skills disable both your weapon slots while transformed. They also grant a third weapon set passive skill tree option.

Demonflame is considered life loss, not damage. As a result, it cannot be redirected to other resources such as Mind Over Matter or mitigated through damage reduction. Demonflame will interrupt energy shield recharge (or life recharge with Eternal Youth).

  • As Demonflame life loss is based on maximum life, Demon Form can be easier to manage by combining flat life regeneration with #% reduced Maximum Life, such as from Ming's Heart, Couture of Crimson.
  • Each stack of Demonflame has a minimum of 1 Life loss per second.

Demon Form will automatically deactivate when the demoness:

Other mechanics:

  • Replaces the Dodge roll with a faster one, but does not add any new features.
  • Prevents trigger effect of boots that create a ground: Birth of Fury, Wake of Destruction.
  • You cannot order minions using Command skills they give (this is likely a bug). However, you can order them to move or attack through Direct Minions.
