Debuffs and Status Effects - Hero Wars Mobile
Debuffs
Stun
Stun stops enemies from using their skills, special abilities, or moving. Stunned heroes also cannot dodge physical attacks.
You will see stars swirling above the affected hero if the stun is activated.
Curiously, any hero can stun if some attacks exceed 20% of the target's maximum health.
Heroes with stun abilities: Andvari, Arachne, Astrid & Lucas, Aurora, Cleaver, Daredevil, Dark Star, Faceless, Fox, Ishmael, K`arkh, Lars, Lilith, Luther, Mojo, Orion, Peppy, Ziri
Blind
Blind will make physical heroes miss their attack. This also includes their ultimate and skill characteristics.
If the blind is activated, you will see a scratched eye above the affected hero.
Heroes with blind ability: Artemis, Heidi, Peppy, Qinq Mao, Fox
Silence
Silence will stop any magic attack from being made.
You will see a mask with scratched lips above the affected hero if the silence is activated.
It is perhaps one of the most complex debuffs because it also affects the hero's skills that do not perform physical damage directly. List with heroes and skills blocked:
- K'arkh - "Nexus of Horror"
- Isaac - "Tes`Lin Overdrive"
- Ishmael - "Awakening"
- Jhu - "You will not stop me"
- Martha - "Foremother's Oath"
- Faceless - skills copied
- Ziri - "Focus of Hatred"
Heroes that have silence ability: Isaac, Keira, Thea
Slow
Slow reduces the target's movement, attack, and skill activation speed.
Heroes that have the slow ability: Chabba, Dark Star, Orion, Peppy
Charm
Charm will prevent the targeted hero from performing any action. The difference with stun is that dodge stats are still active for the charmed heroes.
The charm is removed once the targeted hero receives damage in any way.
Lian's attack does not remove charm because she's only the hero with this ability.
Mind Control
Mind control will make the enemy hero fight on your side temporarily. If only one hero is left, this ability will act like a stun because the hero won't perform self-attacks.
Heroes that have the slow ability: Dark Star
Paralysis
Paralysis will stop the hero from taking any action. It is similar to stun but does not affect the targeted hero's dodge stats.
This debuff is also not removed by Sebastian's "Ballad of Tenacity" shield (compared to the cleared stun).
Heroes that have the slow ability: Phobos, Yasmine
Knockback
Knockback will push the enemy hero back without lifting it in the air.
Heroes that have knockback ability: Astrid & Lucas, Dante, Daredevil, Galahad, Lilith, Markus, Qing Mao, Ziri
Knock-up
Knock-up will lift the enemy hero in the air and drop it down.
Heroes that have knock-up abilities: K'arkh, Kai
Lift
Lift is similar to knock-up. The difference is this ability will lift the hero in the air and move it backwards before dropping it to the ground.
Heroes with lift abilities: Faceless
Pull
Pull ability will drag a hero from its current location to a forward position.
Heroes with lift abilities: Cleaver, Maya, Lars
