Intimidate

category:Guidescategory:Terminology
*When a mob is intimidated, it will not act for that attack turn. In this way it acts like Paralyze, but it stacks with effects that cause paralysis.
* When a Player Character is intimidated, the player will not be able to act for that attack turn.
* Like paralysis, Intimidate can interrupt spellcasting.
:*"The Orcish Shopwrecker is intimidated by Anfini's presence."
*Players can only intimidate monsters when they have enmity on the monster. For instance, a Paladin can only intimidate an undead monster with Undead Killer if he has hate on the monster.
:*"Circle" job abilities temporarily grant a Killer effect to party members within range. For instance, a Paladin may use the ability Holy Circle to allow someone else in his party to temporarily be able to intimidate undead monsters, should they pull hate.
*Killer traits are acquired at various levels and allow the Beastmaster, Paladin, Dark Knight, Dragoon, Samurai, or Blue Mage to intimidate the mobs that are being fought.

*All HQ versions of foods or armor listed here give the Killer effect as well.
* There is no Killer effect for Lumorians.
* Players wearing Crimson Mask, Crimson Scale Mail, Crimson Finger Gauntlets, Crimson Cuisses or Crimson Greaves (or their HQ versions) can be intimidated by monsters or other players with Dragon Killer (including all Demons, Imps, Ahrimans, and Taurus), as if they were Dragons themselves. As this is in relation to Dragon Affinity, those wearing crimson armor can also intimidate the Demon type monsters they can be intimidated by. Dragoon Wyverns are also intimidated by Dragon Killer, and have the Demon Killer trait.
