Withered
Withered is a debuff which applies a 6% increased chaos damage taken on the affected target, stacking up to 15 times. Each stack has its own independent duration (base duration of 2s), which is not refreshed when applying new stacks.
Mechanics
Due to each stack applying its damage taken debuff independently, x% increased Effect of Withered only reaches breakpoints in multiples of 16.67%, rounded up to the nearest integer. The following table contains an example of the first few breakpoints:
