For 4s, monsters within 80 of the nearest take back 250% of their blows on you and summons.

These are base learned-level effects, not final character-sheet damage. Account for equipment bonuses, synergies, modifiers and enemy resistances.

Effects by level

Evolution requirements

Synergies and practical checks

• Only a melee blow comes back, unless you choose Spite: then their missiles and spells do too.
• What comes back is physical damage, the blow’s share as in Diablo II: your magic damage bonuses (Energy, Bone Wall) don’t raise it.
• Melee blows on your summons come back too, but never their missiles or spells, Spite or not. It holds on act bosses and every rank alike.

Skill modifiers

• Spite — Their missiles that hit you also come back on them, for 60% of what their blows send back.
• Contagion — When a cursed monster dies, its curse passes to the monsters near it. The curse lasts 40% less time.
• Judas — It curses only the toughest monster nearby, which takes back 2.5 times as much of its melee blows.
