PoE Hinder Debuff

It's a handy tool for slowing down those pesky mobs in Path of Exile. Here's the lowdown:

What it does:

  • Reduces the movement speed of the affected target, making them easier to outrun or kite.
  • By default, it reduces movement speed by 30% and lasts for 4 seconds.
  • Only the strongest hinder effect applies if multiple sources try to hinder the same target.

How it's applied:

  • Primarily applied by spells, unlike Maim which comes from attacks.
  • Some notable skill examples include Blight, Frost Bomb, and the Aspect of the Spider skill gem.

Modifiers:

  • The strength and duration of the hinder can be modified by various factors like:
    • Unique items: For example, Saffel's Frame can increase the effect of hindering effects on you.
    • Skill gem levels: Higher levels of hinder-applying skills often increase the debuff's strength or duration.
    • Flask mods: Some flasks have mods that increase the effect of hindering effects on enemies.
  • The hinder debuff is represented by a footprint icon with chained links around it.
  • When applied to an enemy, you'll see the icon appear above their head.

Overall, the hinder debuff is a versatile tool for controlling the battlefield in Path of Exile. It can help you kite dangerous enemies, set up for powerful attacks, or simply buy yourself some breathing room. So, next time you're facing a swarm of mobs, consider throwing down a hinder or two and see how much easier it becomes to deal with them!

I hope this explanation helps!
