What if you want to slow someone?

Never use slow on YOURSELF then go into combat. Always cancel slow before engaging, ESPECIALLY against a melee.

slow cannot be cancelled, the only way around this is a certain cabal spell.. and I'm not allowed to tell you which one.

Can't it be effectively cancelled with haste? I know there's a factor with timing, and that haste lasts longer so you end up hasted after your slow wears off... I dunno.

That's a good point Twinblades... yes they would cancel each other. And the haste spell can be cancelled.

Alright thanks for all the advice everyone.

Now it's time to see if I can actually put it to use.

THANKS AGAIN!

The only real downside of slow is that it drains moves though, which haste doesn't make up for. I would use slow if I get terribly outdamaged, so I can dance around and catch 100+ hp ticks. If you are good at catching ticks, you can even run/chase while slowed unless you are poisoned/plauged.

Or enfeebled. Enfeeble and slow means your not running period.

Actually if you are smart, with flight+mount and mv's gear, then moves are not a problem.

Sometimes you eat 250 mvs in a flash, but comes the tic, if you are sleeping (a veteran player will) you are back to full.

Also, if you are slowed and poison, you can still sleep the tic. Offseting the poison penalty.
