Électrocution

Status: Électrocution

All Status Effects Malédiction Feu Gel Poison Electrocution Sommeil Etourdissement

Shock is a status condition that will, at random intervals, cause the victim to spasm, interrupting anything the victim was doing and damaging them. Enemies will only be interrupted if shock damages them while telegraphing: if they are already in the attack animation, it won't be stopped. Attacks that can shock deal a portion of elemental damage; damage taken from shock status can only be reduced by shock-resistant armor. Knights, on the other hand, will be interrupted by the spasm regardless of what they were doing (even interrupting the otherwise unstoppable charge attacks of the troika and striker line swords). If a knight is blocking when a spasm strikes, their shield will be lowered ,exposing them to attacks from monsters (or hostile players in Lockdown) but will not take the damage from the spasm.

A unique characteristic of shock is that when the victim receives damage from shock, everything in a small radius around the target will also be hit. This can break blocks, hurt both enemies and allies, and potentially spread the status.
