Hello everyone, my first post and its maybe a stupid question, seems like a good start ;-)

I need to know on what effects the bully perk actually works, the tooltip/wiki-description tells: "Gives you 50% extra damage against opponents that are slowed, crippled or knocked down." crippled and knocked down is pretty clear, my question is more: what counts as a slow?! In fact a stunned carracter is slowed (by 100%) the same counts for blind in D:OS though i think this doesnt count for this spell. So my question is: Does Bullys "slow" only means effects with the exact same name (f.e. mass slow, Midnight Oil) or does it work with anything that slows the enmies movement speed (chill, freeze, stun) ?

regards Torsten

The status Slowed, with a capital S, is what you need for Bully. (Or Crippled or Knocked Down, obviously.)

Only the Slowed status effect, not other Movement-reducing or imparing statusses.
It's already quite powerful as is.

Also, Blinded does not reduce AP in the slightest. If you get Blinded yourself, you will realise that you can actually cast area spells etc. but not target an enemy or a character other than yourself directly while under this status effect.

Thank you guys! It seems that blind has a larger impact on npc's than on the pc's, blinded enemies (at least what i can tell after ~20h) dont do anything and you also get the 100% hitchance like on stunned targets.

Yup, blinded enemies pretty much skip their turn. They will gain AP so once they get unblinded they will do a lot of stuff, but if you keep them permanently blinded there's nothing they can do... and AP has a limit, so a lot goes to waste too.

Blind's pretty awesome... but then most debilitating statusses are (knockdown is probably best)
