== Notes ==
* Damage reduction is effective for as long as the target is hexed, i.e. if an attack lands after the hex ends (e.g. if the attacker dies while attacking), the attack will deal normal damage and if an attack iniated before the hex begins lands after the hex is applied, it'll deal less damage.
* Any attack triggers the damage, whether or not it hits; you are still affected even if [[miss]]ed, [[block]]ed, or enchanted with [[Illusionary Weaponry]]. Similarly, you are damaged for each attack made from [[Attack#Skills dealing multiple attacks|attack skills that can deal multiple attacks]] and for each foe hit with a [[scythe]].
* Combine with [[Reckless Haste]] in [[Normal mode]] to cause the damage to trigger more often.

;Hard mode
* This skill is more effective in [[Hard mode]] because foes (including [[spellcaster]]s) attack faster.
* [[Hero behavior|Hard Mode AI]] enemies will only cast this on a martial profession wielding a martial weapon.

{{anomaly|Empathy triggers on [[fail]]ed [[attack skill]]s, whereas [[Vigorous Spirit]] does not.}}

== Trivia ==
* The sword in the [[skill icon]] appears to be a [[Gladius (gladius)|Gladius]].
