Watched by Erasmus Icon Watched by Erasmus (Level: 150)

If no enemies have been defeated for 3 seconds, Van Richten’s ghost son Erasmus appears. Whenever Van Richten attacks, Erasmus quickly moves to the target he will attack and curses all enemies in a small area, causing all attacks against them to deal 100% more damage. This is increased by 20% for each Triumph stack Van Richten has, stacking multiplicatively. Erasmus disappears when changing areas.
