Deal [Magic + 4] damage to an enemy. If they are a Tower, deal 3x - 5x damage, based on my Ascensions. Give all allies Barrier if I am damaged.

Never gain barrier!

Just did a very quick test and it only seems to give barriers if its LIFE is damaged. In case of only armor damage, it doesn’t.

Doesn’t seem to be the intended way. Unless “begin damaged” means life, but I don’t recall it like that.

Edit: turns out that Dark Monolith works the same way. Either the description or the functionality is wrong/broken.

Edit 2: turns out that “if i am wounded” is exactly the same too (Archon statue). Doesn’t make sense ofc.

It’s actually a very old issue, see [Imp of Love Rework](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/imp-of-love-rework/52056) from almost two years ago. “Wounded” and “Damaged” both trigger when Life is below max, “Damaged” is probably supposed to trigger when Armor is below max. Unfortunately, the devs never bothered to comment in the past whenever the topic was brought up.
