Instant Damage is an instant status effect that decreases health for players and living mobs and heals the undead.

Effect

Instant Damage inflicts magic damage of 3HP♥♥ × 2level. Undead mobs are healed as if with Instant Health instead. Death is reported as "<player> was killed by magic". When applied using a lingering potion, damage is inflicted every second. As this is magic damage, it can be decreased only via Resistance and Protection.
