The Wand of Slowness is a magical wand in Remixed Dungeon that reduces the speed of enemies. When zapped at a target, it applies the Slow status effect, making the affected creature move and attack at half its ordinary speed.

When used on a target, the Wand of Slowness applies the Slow status effect:

• Speed Reduction: Affected creatures move and attack at half their ordinary speed
• Duration: The effect lasts for (10 / 3 + effectiveLevel()) turns, where 10 is the base duration of Slow buff
• Area of Effect: Single target only
• Range: Standard wand range
• Visual Effect: Causes a distinctive slowing animation effect

• Type: Wand
• Special Effect: Applies Slow status effect to target
• Targeting: Single-target direct aiming
• Charges: Recharges over time like other wands
• Image: items.png index (determined by SimpleWand base class)

• When zapped at a target, applies slow effect for (Slow.duration(char) / 3 + effectiveLevel()) turns
• The base duration of the Slow buff is 10f, which is modified by Resistance effects
• As wand level increases, the duration of the slow effect increases (by 1 turn per level)
• The slow effect reduces action speed by approximately 7.27254 haste level (negative value)
• The effect duration formula: 10 / 3 + wand effective level (after Resistance modifications)
• If the wand is zapped at an empty cell, shows “nothing happened” message

• Use to slow down powerful enemies to gain an advantage in combat
• Particularly effective against fast-moving enemies that would otherwise be difficult to hit
• Good for slowing down groups of enemies one by one
• Can be used defensively to slow approaching enemies
• Works well in combination with other status effects
• Very effective against time-sensitive monsters like Tengu
• Useful during boss fights to create breathing room
• Synergizes well with other control effects like paralysis or vertigo
