Thing is, from a munchkin point of view, anything that can be applied via Side Effect is better applied with a small piercing no wounding attack, than with Affliction. For the rest, if the modifiers are over 0%, toss malediction, if they're under 0%, buy as many levels as you can. It's certainly screwy.
