EffectsEdit

PerksEdit

NotesEdit

  • Stability and Alteration Dual Casting perk effects stack rendering its duration to 33 secs, if cast with both hands.
  • Magic resistance reduces the spell's duration by given percent.
  • Targets that are immune to paralysis may still be staggered.
  • Although Paralyze is an Expert-level spell and only supposed to be in random loot at around levels 35+, rarely it can be found in "boss chest" loot at levels 30 and under.
  • Dragons and Dwarven automatons are entirely immune to Paralyze and all other forms of paralysis.

BugsEdit

  • If you Soul Trap a paralyzed target, they may get up and play their walking animation upon death. ?
  • Killing someone who is paralyzed may result in them not being able to be looted. To avoid this bug, you can paralyze someone and then attack them until their health is very low, then when they begin to stand back up, land the killing blow/spell. ?
