What's the difference between: silence, immobilize, stun and putting the target to sleep?

    Silence - Prevents spellcasting.
    Immobilize - Prevents movement.
    Stun - Temporarily disallows the target to take any action, movement, attack, spellcast, etc.
    Sleep - Same as stun, but attacking the target ends the effect.

    That's what my experience has lead me to believe. Can I get some confirmation on that, though?

    confirmed b:cool that is indeed the case.

    silence is "your magic attack hurts, we're gonna take that away for a bit"

    immobilize is "STOP KITING ME YOU @#$$^(#!(&*!!!!!1111!!!"

    stun is "hold still while i kill you"

    and sleep is "gimme a sec, i'm not ready to deal with you yet," or, for caster classes, "hang on a moment while i cast this ulti"
    Things said during a Twizted faction PK session:
    Slayer_of_Souls: you guys are such suck ups. none of you have attacked twid.
    Twiddzly(fac leader): no, sere killed me already.
    Slayer_of_Souls: he's out there waiting for us, isn't he. i'm gonna die.
    Sereneai: b:sin why don't you come find out.
    Kinglkaruga: you go first dule.

    I should note that the "Silent Seal" cleric debuff actually immobilizes the target, freezing it in place, making it a rather badly named (though handy) skill.

    If you want to know what other status icons that appear under your character's HP/MP/Chi bars, see the "Status Icon Reference Guide" entry in the PWI wiki.

    ill be even more specific with the silence effect.

    It prevents target to cast but also to do any physical attack (even normal attacks). The only thing the target is allowed to do is moving (when using the wizard's skill force of will wich is a pure silence skill, the target, if pure physical, will just run away from you. This is the best example ive found to describe the "silence" effect).

    My LOL's for the day! thx
    There's no such thing as a "Perfect World" full of Jade, diamonds, gold, and other riches and treasures. There is only an imperfect world, with an imperfect society, full of imperfect people, with imperfect idea's about how to be perfectly rich and perfectly perfect. No one cares about being perfectly kind, perfectly fair, or perfectly content.
    It's a perfectly sad world.
