Weakness to Disease M% for D seconds

This effect causes the target to be M% more likely to catch a disease from an infected creature, for a duration of D seconds.

It is an almost completely useless magical effect, since only the player is able to catch diseases and only when attacked by a diseased creature. The only time this effect is relevant is when it exists as a negative attribute on an enchanted piece of clothing or armor, usually to offset some more positive attributes.

[edit] Notes

• Can be useful when used on Self for highly disease-resistant races, such as Wood Elves, in order to acquire Vampirism.
