*Effects I haven't gotten to yet for verifying attack speed decrease - Partial Stoning



My question for you folks is can you think of any attack speed slowing effects that I am missing (being I don't play humanoids I'm apt to miss quite a few)?

I've been playing 4+ years and I didn't know that one lol

[dkyle]

Trog stench slows attacks, doesn't it?

Also, Scourge Choker's after effect.

[efreet5]

Yeah, you forgot limb chopper which says it gives a 50% penalty to attack speed I believe. I have an epic Unkoor's Cleaver and I can double check it right quick in case I'm wrong.

[MrCow]

Got the troglodyte stench added. I haven't had a Scourge Choker in a long time so I have no access to quickly test the attack speed penalty amount.

[Svetelana]

Defensive stances...ie Defender of Siberys

[xTethx]

Tendon Slice 10% is bugged right now and reduces attack speed. I think. Dont quote me. :)

[MrCow]

Tendon Slice 10% is bugged right now and reduces attack speed. I think. Dont quote me.

Attack speed slowdowns caused by Tendon Slice are related to the issue where particular monster models have their attack speed linked with their movement speed (Marilith during Update 1 and Pit Fiend during Update 5).

Limbchopper, found on the Necropolis Sever axe. The biggest magnitude slowdown...

Rogue Assassin Icechill Poison! (That'll be a hard one due to the poor duration and proc rate)

An environmental effect in the Necro 3 dungeon with Gelatenous Cubes...?

Hesstess partial stoning.

[garlor]

Defensive stances...ie Defender of Siberys

I don't know about DoS, but for SD it slows down movement speed, not attack speed

[Meowin]

edit #2: Just noticed you went for effects on player characters so put the ones below in brackets, they are rarely used by enemies...

Solid fog is missing on the spell effect list, acid fog has a similar description so it should slow down as well I think? Never tested that because fog is slow, and time is xp for most players. always thought acid fog was great for bosses as a damaging solid fog..

Sleet storm "slows movement" as well, but movement and movement can be different when it comes to DDO descriptions...

[NaturalHazard]

question on the titans grip is it when you got it equiped or when you got the str boost thingy for 1 minute going? if its equiped and i equipe it then use clicky then unequipe it?

[Krag]

Freezing effect (Gianthold Tor, VoN5, ToD) appear to slow down attack speed.

[blitzschlag]

hamstring effects (like in gnoll area in desert) apparently slow down attack aswell...

[Xyfiel]

Never noticed a reduction with titan's grip or essence of desire on ranged attacks.
I am mostly on a long break, if you need a scourge for testing let me know who to send it to.

[Cinderbeard]

Someone told me drinking Yugo pots slow attack speed by 5%.

Reluctant to believe it. Anyone know about this?

apparently the con pots do as hidden side effect

[Crann]

Harried from running up the Dungeon alert.

I don't know exactly how much slowed you are, but I'd guess around 25%.

[AyumiAmakusa]

I've been playing 4+ years and I didn't know that one lol

Omg, I didn't know that one either.

[MrCow]

Icechill, Blight Rot: Slow, Chaos Hammer: Slow, and Limbchopper added.

Keep in mind that I'm looking for effects that cause a decrease in attack speed, not necessarily movement speed (so effects like Solid Fog, Harried, Sleet Storm, and Defensive Stances are beyond the scope of this thread).

It is the clickable effect that possesses the penalty to attack speed. It is also rather fickle and appears to not bestow the penalty all the time.

[MrCow]

Aqua Sphere added (Into the Deep) and Revolting Stench.

[MrCow]

Added: Sticky, Gust of Wind Slow.

[MrCow]

Added: Bloodrage Sated (From the Scourge Choker or Blood Rage crafted effect).

[rpasell]

The Beholder Armor has a slowing effect, though the stats escape me.

*Edit*
Metal Fatigue

Found on:

Beholder Plate Armor
Beholder Plate Docent
Effect: The metal plates of this armor sometimes tire you out. When you are damaged there is a small chance you will become Exhausted.

Exhausted creatures moves at half speed and take a -6 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. Exhausted creatures can be cured with the spells Heal, Panacea, or Restoration.

[Grenada]

Lag also causes a decrease in attack speed, though the exact effects vary.

[MrCow]

Metal Fatigue does not decrease attack speed. Movement speed goes down, but not attack speed. :)

[Riggs]

I vote that every other thread my MrCow should get a sticky or something.

No one else has that vast amount of useful information...

[parvo]

Hi Cow. Dunno if the prefix crippling slows attacks. You probably already checked.

Interesting fact; Slow spell is a paralyzation effect and can be countered with remove paralysis potion. Just recently learned that from a guildy.

[Missing_Minds]

DA and the harried effect. It always seems like you attack slower at least.

Haste potions will also counter/dispel the slow spell.

[parvo]

Haste potions will also counter/dispel the slow spell.

Now I'm confused...maybe its sickness effect that remove paralysis cures? meh...

[voodoogroves]

Metal Fatigue does not decrease attack speed. Movement speed goes down, but not attack speed. :)

Not to pick a nit, but have you tried that on a fleshie and does it work consistently?

;-)

Play a fleshling? Why would I commit such blasphemy? Warforged are afflicted by Metal Fatigue.

... last I checked on my punching-bag human bard on a different account Exhaustion effects did not slow attack speed.

[voodoogroves]

Play a fleshling? Why would I commit such blasphemy?

Hehehe that's my point

I wonder if it effects the lesser races differently?
