Petrify is a stun that turns enemies into stone when earth damage comes in contact with poisoned enemy.

  • It's approximately a 6s stun.
  • Petrified flying mobs drop out of the air and instantly die if they land in a void, This does not work for Dark Assassins.
  • Causes the Drakenlord to take full damage whilst petrified even if his shield hasn't been disabled by ignite, burning strikes, or ring of fire first.
  • Has the best body block, petrified mobs form a physical barrier which prevents un-petrified mobs from walking past (to a degree).
  • Counts towards controller mods.
  • Has diminishing returns (DR).
