Resplendant Cure 3 + Blood of Nadox cured it
Crusader's Touch is a bit faster.

Four casts of Crusader's Touch also killed this.

Did a LDoN with a group, and we came across a vase.

The rogue tried to disarm it, it nabbed everyone with Plague Mites.

Plague Mites do 50 damage per tick and last for an hour. That's 30000 damage total over the entire hour period. O_o

I was the only one in my group who survived them. Got to full HP and attempted to find the exit while I had the chance. By that time, they were already coming back down.

We only needed to kill 1 more monster to get the "lesser reward". We got that monster down to 34% HP and the dungeon boots us. I had to sit and heal AGAIN after that.

The paladin who had Cure Disease only cast it about 4 times before saying it wasn't working and abandoned it, even after someone told him to keep casting it.

Well, it was their loss. <_<
Nasty dot

7 casts of Counteract Disease removed this.
uhh cure poison and curse don't work

I don't know how they got rid of this with cure poison/curse. In my case it was DEFINITELY remove disease that cured it.

Edit: took ten casts of counteract disease to get this off some people.

Druid tried to cure with RC3 on me and it no worky. About 5 casts of her best Cure Disease did. This dot is a pain - even with a 25 regen on it was still eating away.

Got this tonight trying to open a trapped chest in The Spider Den - an LDoN adventure zone off of Everfrost Peaks.

Curable with three casts of Pure Blood, or maybe 10 Counteract Disease. Thought we were all going to die =)

Got wiped out by this disease in LDoN Halls of War dungeon. I think a wizzy set a barrel trap off when casting an AE snare spell (Atol's) at another nearby mob. If so, better beware of AE spells down there.
