Omniknight's Repel can't grant immunity to pure damage

[BoarGod]

Ability name

Repel

Description

As BKB's description of Debuff Immunity, Repel can grant immunity to pure and reflected damage. But when i use Omniknight's Purification to hit the Repel's target, it can cause damage, and so do other skills which cause pure damage. By the way, reflected damage can't cause damege to Repel's target.

I tested Repel, Rage, and Avatar. Repel does not have immunity to pure damage but does negate reflected damage. This is an inconsistency, yes. Your description might be confusing tho.

On a related note, Debuff Immunity only makes you immune to Pure Damage that does NOT pierce Debuff Immunity, and negates reflected damage (Dispersion, Blade Mail, Spiked Carapace). Magic resistance does not innately come with debuff immunity, it must be stated with the item or ability that grants the debuff immunity.

• Examples of pure damage that does NOT pierce Debuff Immunity are: Impetus, Arcane Orb, Hammer of Purity.
• Examples of pure damage that pierces Debuff Immunity are: Death Ward, Doom, Desolate, Macropyre scepter, Burning Spear pure, Psi Blades spill, Laguna Blade pure, Sunstrike, Vendetta, Diabolic Edict. Yep! Almost everything. lol
