Slow not affecting melee speed

[Byrjun]

Slow isn't affecting the melee speed of a bunch of mobs I've been trying to solo recently... undead dwarf skeleton mob in icewell, devourer spider in Velk's, another shaman told me it wasn't doing anything in DN (not sure what mobs he was fighting).

[astuce999]

nothing in velks seems affected by slow, resist rate is normal, just no speed difference. Same thing in siren's grotto. Also, mobs seem super MR in siren's, is this classic?

[Byrjun]

Didn't seem to be making a difference on our Statue attempts last night too, dunno if slow is just entirely broken now or what.

Edit: Turgur's Insects working correctly on Puntar Sandfisher in Nro so it's not the spell that's bugged... maybe a conflict with increasing an NPC's base attack speed?

Edit2: a dire wolf in EW slowed fine. But check out this log of a shard spider in Velketor's:

Not only are a lot of mobs attacking way too fast, the ones that seem to be attacking way too fast also seem to not be affected by slow.

The mobs that attack at a decent rate get slowed normally.

[Haynar]

Base attack speed was adjusted across the board. But rate of duel weild, and double attack was lowered.

Parses showed little difference in DPS.

As far as slow, I will look at it. There may be some rounding that negates it for mobs that attack too fast. The formula for slowing was not adjusted in the code though.

[Byrjun]

It definitely seems to be linked to the NPCs that attack too fast, which is a lot of them in Velious.

I obviously don't have logs from 2000 to prove that the attack speed is "too fast" but anything about level 45 or so is like an uzi of melee spam.

[nivikk]

yeah slow not seeming to work at all

[ganedar]

confirming that nothing in West Wastes exhibiting a working slow mechanic.

tried dragons, rhinos, mastodons, hounds, and burrowers.
