Exposure
Tooltip
Exposure is a type of Debuff that lowers the affected enemy's Resistances to the corresponding damage type. By default it inflicts -20% to the specified resistance and lasts for 4 seconds, though some sources of exposure can override these values.

Multiple sources of the same type of Exposure cannot stack with one another unless stated otherwise, and only the strongest source of Exposure will apply. Multiple different types of Exposure can apply to the same target at once..

Exposure is a debuff which reduces resistance to a specific damage type.

    Supports have had their wording adjusted to make clear their effects apply to any target, not just Enemies. This is not a functional change, just a clarification of wording.
