Slow is a warding spell that makes the air around a victim denser, slowing down the target's actions and causing up to 3 seconds of immediate roundtime (RT). The degree of the effect is dependent upon a caster's skill and on the total roundtime of the effort the victim is attempting. If Rapid Fire (515) is active on the caster, then slow will cause 1 second of immediate roundtime on the target vs. 3 seconds.

Training in Elemental Lore, Air will unlock an open cast version of the spell and will also increase the RT effect on the target.
