The damage is secondary damage, and as such it cannot be evaded, blocked, spell blocked, dodged, or spell dodged. The amount of damage taken from this effect is affected by physical damage reduction, such as from armour or endurance charges, as well as modifiers to damage taken, such as from Fortify or Oro's SacrificeOro's Sacrifice
