decrepify

[mathstheheroin]

nowhere i have looked seems to specify, but does decrepify only slow and reduce the physical damage of the mob, or does is also half casting speed and dmg of elemental attacks, for example diablos lightning/flame nova attacks?

Only physical damage is reduced. Magic attacks are at full strength. FCR is not affected by it.

However, it seems some enemies' spell are under IAS.

Sometimes, when Baal is "slowed", it reduces the chance of him casting his more powerful spells.

With enough slow you can slow bosses down enough to start a new attack before they have finished their old attack. This means they can't do any of their fancy spells. Rather funny to watch. I don?t know if monsters use FCR or if they use IAS to cast spells.

thanks guys, was just having a little problem with diablo one shotting my minions on normal, it seemed to be a pretty unpredictable thing and i was looking at a way to reduce the magic dmg he did. eventually worked out it was whether or not they where infront of him or not, so just casting clay behind him so he turns around keeps them all alive.

Not to mention Clay Golem slows him down as well.
