After I learned freeze and sleep skills, I noticed that they do not stay as long as its description says.
Is this some kind of glitch or it happen with all the skills of Frezze / sleep / stun / silence from other classes too?
Thx for replies.

    If you read the skill descriptions they state that they last 'up to' a certain time. Which means anything from 0 secs to the stated maximum. Freeze however is particulary unreliable for some reason and consistently fails to last longer than a sec, even if you max it. Sleep however is much better and usually stays up near its maximum time.

    Freeze usually lasts more if its either lvl 10 or lvl 11 (Sage/Demon)

    My own sleep at lvl 1 lasts for round to 8-10 seconds

    I remember someone once told me the duration of the effect of those skills are random on mobs, while using them against another player they do last it's maximum time.

    I haven't done a deep test to check this, but by my experience seems it does, since every time I use those skills against other player on TW they stay sleeped or freezed longer than if I sleep/freeze a mob.

    I tryed duel with a friend and it seems that it lasts the same time in duels.
    Never tryed open pvp or TW to talk about.

    Yah, it's "up to" x amount of seconds, where x changes with the skills level. For instant Chromatic at level 10 is random between 0-33.6 seconds, but the higher its leveled the more likely it'll last longer because its a bigger range.

    Sage increases the minimum and maximum amount of time it'll last, though. At least from what I've heard. So instead of 0-34 seconds, like demon, its 4-38 seconds so you are guaranteed at least 4 seconds.

    And I believe pvp is also random. I've had people lose the sleep after about 2 seconds during pvp without using a genie skill, being attacked, or being purified.
