EPTheh..sorry..
Irradiate
1) how much damage/second does it do?
2) does the damage/second ratio change when you stack them?
- IE irraditing 2 vessels and hosing some guys workerline.
heh..sorry i know this ones gonna be hard to dig up xD

1sci vessel iradiated and 1 muta is 2x more damage than just the muta if they are all directly on top of each other, but of course i could be wrong. | ||

this means only ultra's survive... irradiate's stack infinitely, but of course you can only irradiate each unit once, doing this twice doesn't add damage but renews the spell. all from memory so hope it right. | ||

From what I've seen, Irradiate probably does 3.5 damage every 5 frames (which would be roughly 13 damage per second on Fastest). My observations are probably a bit sketchy but that's most likely accurate. And yes it stacks additively. | ||

I think when you have 2 irradiated vessels and running from scourges ,they die from the irradiate usually before killing the vessels.The zerg could prolly micro better though , cause if you cant run..But certainly can help in some situations. | ||

You have to be a little bit outside his base so he can't see it but if you are not fast enough the first irradiate is gone when you have casted the 12th and have flew to his base | ||

Units with D-matrix takes 57 dmg from Irradiate About that vessel stack vs scourge: 12 vessel, 24 scourge ![[image loading]](http://img31.exs.cx/img31/1350/screen58.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://img31.exs.cx/img31/976/screen59.jpg) 1 vessel dies :O | ||

Kills a lurker in just about 13 seconds, 125 hps, lurker has 1 default armor. That equates to a high 9 or something per second, but my timing wasn't exact. Anywho. So all you kids out there playing Z, remember to upgrade your armor (: | ||

Irradiate does 10 damage per second on Fastest, 250 total. Fastest runs at 20 frames per second. That means Irradiate does 3.33 damage about every 7 frames. On every third damage tic, it counts 6 frames instead of 7. On every third damage tic, it does 4 damage instead of 3. | ||

200 - 24*6 = 56 / 2 = 28 zeals left MAX (with workers it'll probable not get higher than 10 zeals, so that would make them very to irrad, even if you use irrad on the interceptors^^. I think, in this case you're better off worrying about the carriers first. | ||
