Applying Freeze to a moving monster temporarily pauses its movement until it's released. Burning targets now apply 10% of their Atk. to monsters in 150 px around them.
Sleep	Sleeping now restores 1% of HP every second for the time being. An incoming attack immediately cancels Sleep, and 150% of Atk. is applied to this awakening attack.
Petrification	Petrification decreases incoming damage by 10% for its duration. Its incoming damage reduction rate is decreased by 1% every second. Applying Petrification to a moving monster temporarily pauses its movement until it's released.
Shock	Continuous damage is applied for its duration separately from the damage added to attacks.
Blind	Blinding monsters now decreases their Hit Rate.
Confusion	Confusing monsters now temporarily pause their movement.
