Creeping Shadows

Creeping Shadows is a debuff from the Equilibrium dungeon. It is a variant of the Pervading Darkness debuff. Players who stay in the dark tunnels too long without protection are killed by it.

Effect and removal

The timer resets each time a player picks up Gathering Shadow energy from the darkness pools in each encounter area. Defeated Nameless Apprentices also drop Gathering Shadow pools to refresh the buff.

Having the Shadow Novice buff active negates the Creeping Shadows debuff in the tunnels. Shadow Novice is earned once the Gathering Shadow bar fills, and it replaces the grenade with a special Shadow attack.
