Need help creating a damage over time potion effect

Just started trying MCreator so bare with me if this was really easy to solve. Wanted to know how I could go about creating a potion effect that would deal armor-ignoring damage slowly over time similar to the withering effect and its damage and damage rate (deals damage every X seconds) would increase by a certain number every level. All help is appreciated!

If you're using an Mcreator version that lets you create your own damage type, I recommend you do that, and when the effect ticks deal that custom damage type instead, then when you go into tags, you have to pick one of the vanilla tags, it should be in the damage type tab called bypass_armor, then put your damage type in there, and it will bypass any armor.
