It is as with Mannoroth's blood curse—a spiritual problem requires a spiritual solution.

Purge is a shaman class talent that removes a "Magic" buff effect from one enemy target. It is similar to a priest's [Dispel Magic]. The spell will also be cast if a target is immune through some mechanism such as [Ice Block] or [Banish].

It is an exclusive choice node with [Greater Purge].

Notes

This ability should not be confused with the Purge spell from Warcraft III Shaman units; this spell does not slow the movement of the target nor inflict damage to summoned creatures.
