I'm only posting the tests done with paradox bomb slow and mystic slow, here is how I tested it:
Method of checking speed:
Pressing alt and looking at the hud speed shown while in hero testing
Applied mystic slow on Infernus:
(No items on Infurnus, only mystic slow applied)
His move speed once it was applied is 5.4 m/s.
His base movement speed is 6.8 m/s, doing the math this means that it reduced his speed by 1.4 m/s, or 20.6% (rounding 1.4 ms / 6.8 m/s).
Doing the exact same test but with paradox bomb:
(no items on infernus, no other effects applied)
Reduced his speed by the same amount that mystic slow did. (1.4 m/s, or 20.6%)
Both of these should be a 30% movement slow, but they do not actually slow by that much.
When I did another test with some items on infernus:
(fortitude and frenzy on Infernus, used these items so that there is +2.5 m/s to his speed without any slow resist for a total move speed of 9.3 m/s)
Infernus move speed became 7.1 m/s -> Base movement speed reduced by 2.2 m/s or 23.7% (rounding 2.2 m/s / 9.3 m/s).
In all these tests there is no debuff or slow resist being used at all.
I also did some minor testing with some other slows, and doing simple math the numbers did not look right on his slow either, but doing and submitting these tests with every slow is tedious so I will leave it at that.
Final Bug Verdict:
Either
1. The slow amounts are not being applied correctly.
2. The hud is not giving the correct current move speed.
3. Slows aren't applied linearly (or whatever the terminology is), however I am only applying one slow at a time in every single test, so I don't believe its that.
Thank you.
