Action speed

Action speed is a stat that affects the total time it takes for an entity to complete an animation.

Mechanics

Action speed is an overall multiplier affecting all animations including:

Non-instant movement
Skills with a use time
Creating a portal
Interacting with certain interactables like levers

Non-specific slow effects affect action speed. This includes:

Chill
Temporal Chains
Zarokh's hourglass skill

When action speed is set to 0, no non-instant actions can be performed.

Slow effect penalties

The effect of slow is innately diminished based on enemy rarity:

15% less Slow effect on Magic monsters
30% less Slow effect on Rare monsters
50% less Slow effect on Unique monsters

Additionally, Slows have 10% less effect on all monsters for each player in the area beyond the first, up to 50% less with a party of six.
