Status reference
Dungeonbound layers damage-over-time, control and anti-stall effects, each ticking on its own schedule. This is the reference we use when a fight ends and we are not sure why.

Status clocks
Bars are relative, not to scale. Tick rates are from official patch notes.
The index
Filter by role. Every entry separates the confirmed effect from our planning response; unknown tick rates are marked instead of guessed.
Damage over time
Confirmed
Stacks and ticks on its own clock. The Halloween update set Poison to tick every 3 seconds.
Planning response
Poison rewards long fights. Against a poison board, front-load damage or bring a cleanse/heal plan; do not assume one big Block pool solves the fight.
Damage over time
Confirmed
Stacks and ticks every 1.5 seconds. Burn-ward items now block 50% of Burn damage.
Planning response
Burn is the faster DoT, so it punishes slow setup turns. Burn wards are a direct counter; otherwise race the stack count.
Damage over time
Confirmed
A damage-over-time status. The official battle log shows "Bleed ruptures" as a damage event.
Planning response
The exact tick rate is not published. Treat Bleed as pressure that gets worse the longer a fight runs, and value cleanse or burst accordingly.
Control
Confirmed
Lowers Dodge. The Halloween update buffed Freeze and tied it to accuracy rather than outright skipping turns.
Planning response
Do not build a dodge-only defence against a Freeze board. Add Block, healing or a cleanse so the dodge loss does not collapse the whole plan.
Control
Confirmed
Stunned items run at half speed and hurt their owner when they fire. Stun knives gained Multicast on a stunned foe instead of free hits.
Planning response
Stun is a double-edged control effect: it slows the target's engine but turns their triggers into self-damage. Check whether your own high-trigger board is vulnerable to it.
Defensive
Confirmed
Reflects damage back at attackers. It shows beside the portrait. A v0.1.51 fix stopped Thorns on a killing blow from dealing 20k+ damage.
Planning response
Thorns punishes many small hits. If a rival board is covered in Thorns, fewer and larger hits reduce the number of reflections; lifesteal and healing offset the chip damage.
Control
Confirmed
Terrified fighters take extra damage. The Halloween update added a Haunted item type built around Terror and made Terror hit the bearer on every attack.
Planning response
Terror is an offensive multiplier, not just a debuff. If you see Haunted gear on a rival, expect your own attacks to cost more than the tooltip suggests.
Control
Confirmed
A healing-reduction debuff. The Halloween update set Unhealing to 15% per stack.
Planning response
Stacked Unhealing can outpace a heal-heavy Paladin or lifesteal board. Keep a cleanse, or win before the stacks accumulate.
Anti-stall
Confirmed
Kicks in after 60 seconds in v0.1.50. It pressures long fights so that a tanky stalemate cannot run forever. A reviewer described the better-healing side winning once fatigue starts.
Planning response
Do not build an infinite sustain board and assume it wins. Add real damage so you close before fatigue, or lean into healing if you expect a long attrition mirror.
Resource
Confirmed
Holds back timed items, delaying their independent activations.
Planning response
Timed boards care about the seconds between activations. Slow is a direct counter to Charge-stacking timer builds.
Resource
Confirmed
Speeds up timed items. Thunderhead Greaves, for example, gain 1 Charge every 4 seconds.
Planning response
Charge is the accelerator for timed gear. If your board leans on Metronome-class items, Charge support is closer to a damage stat than a utility stat.
Defensive
Confirmed
A healing-over-time stat. Oathkeeper Blade grants 1 Regen per hit in the official combat screenshot.
Planning response
Regen favours long fights. Pair it with Block against physical pressure, but do not rely on it alone against burst or Unhealing.
The key distinction
Direct damage is absorbed by Block; status ticks are their own clock. A board that only plans for the next hit can lose to a stack it never blocked. That is why sustain and cleanse matter more than a single big defensive number.
The anti-stall rule
Fatigue starts at 60 seconds. An infinite sustain board does not win by default; it eventually has to deal with a fight that is trying to end. Add a real damage clock or lean into healing if you expect an attrition mirror.
