Poison

Status: Poison

All Status Effects Stun Poison Fire Freeze Shock Curse Sleep

When a knight is poisoned, they cannot heal, either from hearts or capsules, and have reduced attack power by approximately one-third.

Monsters afflicted with poison will be unable to heal themselves or regenerate health. Gremlin Menders or Wings will slightly damage poisoned monsters instead of healing them. Monster's damage dealt will be reduced by approximately 45%, and damage dealt to poisoned monsters will be increased, although the following instances of damage are not affected by poison:

• Fire Ticks
• Thaw damage
