Instant Damage

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 × 2level. Undead mobs are healed as if with Instant Health instead. Death is reported as " 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. Instant Damage has its duration set in game ticks (instead of seconds) with the command.
