{{flavour|All your actions take 50% longer.}}

[[Slow]] is a status effect that makes all actions take 150% their normal duration.

==Effect==
Slowed creatures take 50% longer for any action. This can seriously reduce the damage output of affected creatures, and it is much easier to escape slowed pursuers (but much harder to escape when slowed).

It can be removed by [[Quicksilver Bolt|quicksilver]] attacks or a [[potion of cancellation]]. A source of [[Haste]] (such as a [[potion of haste]] or [[Berserk]]) can also negate Slow, returning you to normal speed without rounding error. Note that Haste doesn't remove the Slow status, just cancels its effects.

[[Formicid]]s are completely immune to the effect due to their [[stasis]].

==Sources==
*The [[Slow (spell)|Slow]] [[spell]]
{{monsters with spell|Slow}}

Additional sources of Slow include:
*[[Metabolic Englaciation]] and the [[Skin of Zhor]]
*[[Miasma]] clouds
*[[Curare]]-tipped [[dart]]s
*[[Cheibriados]]' Temporal Distortion
*[[Chaotic]] effects
*Mummy [[death curse]]s
*[[Torpor snail]]s while they're in [[LOS]]
*[[Miscasting]] a [[Hexes]] spell
*Taking [[cold]] damage while [[cold-blooded]]
*Overwhelming [[divine retribution]]
*[[Berserk]] running out and by extension the effect of a [[Datura]]-tipped dart.
*[[Poor Constitution]] mutation at Level 2
*[[Stat zero]]

Note that [[Swiftness]] applies -Swift at the end of it's duration, which unlike a normal Slow only reduces movement speed.

==History==
*Prior to [[0.14]], you could be slowed by drinking a [[potion of slowing]].
