Game Mechanics

Intimidate Greatly lowers damage potential by reducing damage done and slightly lowers primary defense modifiers. Intimidate also lowers state defenses and negates all secondary defenses causing secondary defenses to not work while the target is intimidated. All intimidates can be used virtually instantaneously (as soon as they exit combat queue) and as such was able to be spammed during precu. Intimidate 1 lasts for 30 seconds where as intimidate 2 lasts for up to 2 minutes. Intimidate also has a skill modifier called Intimidation. This modifier affects the chance of applying the intimidate skill on the target. When intimidate is applied to a target, the newer application's timer will overwrite the former thus the effect can continuously be applied. Like taunt and other abilities, intimidate has a range of up to 30 meters.

According to data collected intimidate state does the following:

• lowers the attacker's damage after melee/range mitigation by 66.67%

• lowers attacker's state defenses and primary defenses by 50

• negates all secondary defenses of attacker to 0% chance of going off.

Unsubstantiated information says it also does the following:

• lowers attacker's accuracy
• lowers ability for the attacker to apply states to opponent
• Delays opponent combat action for one turn after being intimidated
