Editing Paralysis

[[File:Paralysis.png|20px|link=]][[Paralysis]] is a status effect in ''PSO''. Paralysis can be applied by:
* a special attack from an Arrest-series weapon,
* an attack from a [[Gulgus-gue]] or an [[Ul Ray]],
* a scream from a [[Poison Lily|Poison]], [[Nar Lily|Nar]], [[Ob Lily|Ob]], or [[Mil Lily]],
* a melee attack from a [[Dark Belra]] or [[Indi Belra]],
* the insects from a hive in [[Subterranean Desert]]
Some quests also have special traps that can inflict paralysis on the player.

==Mechanics==
Paralysis and [[poison]] cannot affect the same player at the same time; if a player is paralyzed and becomes poisoned, they will no longer be paralyzed, and vice versa.

===Players===
Paralysis lasts until dispelled by {{Tool|Antiparalysis}}, {{Tool|Sol Atomizer}}, level 3 {{Anti}}, a healing ring, or the nurse at the [[Medical Center]]. Paralysis prevents players from attacking or casting techniques, but not moving or using items. Android players are immune to paralysis, as are players with a {{Frame|rare|Sacred Cloth}} or {{Unit|rare|Cure/Paralysis}} equipped.

===Monsters===
Paralysis lasts for 7 seconds. If paralysis is applied to a monster that is already paralyzed, its paralysis duration will be reset for the player who re-inflicted it, but not for the other players. Paralysis prevents monsters from moving or attacking, and will lower the monster's EVP by 15%. Bosses and {{Machine}}-type monsters are immune to paralysis.

===Special attacks===
Paralysis can be applied using the special attack from an Arrest-series weapon. Provided the attack connects, each special has a different chance of success.

Androids receive a 30% boost to the activation rate of all paralysis specials on Ultimate difficulty. This value can be added directly to the values in the Power column below. {{Unit|rare|V501}} and {{Unit|rare|V502}} give an additional 50% boost to the activation rate of paralysis specials; these stack with the android boost, but not with each other.

Base Paralysis Chance = ((Power) - (Enemy ESP)) * (Special Reduction) * (Unit Boost)
