My friend said that the duration damage is pure.
Is it true?

Attacks and spells where the actual damage appears like critical and "shadow strike" actually deals the same damage output as the number it shows, ..

anyways, shadow strike loses it's effectiveness it terms of damage when the game prolongs but the slow is still useful,

.

Yeah even if it it deals pure damage, it loses its effectiveness since the mid game....
unless for the slow effect or for venomancer along with the nova.
