In [[Horn of the Abyss]], Advanced and Expert Slow's effect is reduced: the enemy's speed is lowered to 50% of normal +1. For example, the [[Zombie]]'s base speed is 4. Without Horn of the Abyss, Advanced Slow halves the speed to 2 (4 × 0.5). With Horn of The Abyss, Advanced Slow reduces the speed to 3 (4 × 0.5 + 1).

== Trivia ==
An early name for this spell was "Muck and Mire".

{{user commentary|
Slow is one of the best spells in the game, even though it is only level 1.  Especially useful early in the game it can allow one's units to have first option at attacking.  Ranged attackers such as [[Marksman|Marksmen]] and [[Grand Elf|Grand Elves]] can easily clear out slow, yet powerful guardians like [[Dendroid|Dendroids]] or [[Golems]] with this spell in effect.
