[edit] Notes

• Casting this hex on multiple foes that are within the same area of affect will compound the amount of damage caused to all the foes in the group. Arcane Echo can be used to help facilitate this strategy.
• Combine with Price of Failure and Reckless Haste on attackers to deal more damage and cause them to miss.
• Damage from this hex is applied before the skill actually activates or the attack actually hits. For example, a self-heal will trigger Spiteful Spirit before the heal occurs.
• Because of the way Hero AI picks targets, they will usually not use it as often as needed for maximum effect.
• This skill is useful in hard mode as it benefits from the attack and casting speed bonuses foes have.
• Usually referred to as SS in PvE; in PvP SS usually means Steady Stance which can cause some confusion.
