Overview

Charged with Blight is the secondary trait on Touch of Malice, an Exotic Scout Rifle. Precision hits raise stability and reload speed and drain enemies' life force to charge a ball of Darkness. The alternate weapon action heals you and fires the charged projectile. On impact it wraps enemies in Darkness, blinding them and inflicting Corruption.

Ten precision hits give 10 stacks. The shot increases Weapons of Sorrow damage by 50%, with blind and poison for about three seconds. The damage bonus applies to Weapons of Sorrow in some references, and to Touch of Malice, Thorn, Osteo Striga and Necrochasm in others. The fire input is listed as reload in some references and as the alternate action in others.

The intrinsic perk, a bonus-damage last round that regenerates, is separate from this trait.
