Status Effects

This Guide should explain what all of the status effects in Gigantic do. There are some things that I am unsure of so feel free to correct me in the comments. Also can anyone explain to me the difference between effect and affect.

Quick note - all status effects apply a small damage over time affect to ensure the target remains in combat

Slow
Reduces movement speed
Caused by a variety of abilities

Frozen
Applies a slow and provides damage over time
Can be applied by Pakko, Imani and the Frost Cyclops

Cripple
Applies a slow and reduces jump height
There are a few abilities then can apply a cripple and all mele characters can apply cripples
by jump attacking into the back of enemies
