These effects are ridiculous when you are playing solo. It’s even worse since there are almost always 2-4 risen nearby that attack you.
One example that is fresh in my mind is the underwater skill point south of Murray Point in Malchor’s Leap. That statue of Melandru’s effect constantly causes bleeding and cripple while there are over 4 risen that you can easily aggro. This makes reaching the skill point daunting and actually being able to get the skill point an even bigger nightmare.
