Slow monster

English

 • 中文（中国大陆）‎

In NetHack, slow monster is an effect that reduces monsters to ²⁄₃ of their normal movement speed. It can be applied from any of the following sources:

• The wand of slow monster.
• The spellbook of slow monster and its accompanying spell.

The following information pertains to an upcoming version (NetHack 3.7.0). If this version is now released, please verify that the information below is still accurate, then update the page to incorporate it.

Slowed monsters whose natural speed is above 12 lose a greater proportion of their movement points above 12 - ²⁄₃ of them. I.e. a monster with speed 17 would lose ¹⁄₃ of their first 12 movement points and ²⁄₃ of their next 5 movement points, rounded down, for a total of only 9 movement points.
