====== Vertigo Buff ======

{{ rpd:images:vertigo_buff.png|Vertigo Status Effect }}

==== Description ====
**Vertigo** (also called Confusion or Dizziness) is a negative status effect in Remixed Dungeon that causes disorientation in the affected character.

==== Effects ====
  * **Disorientation:** Affected characters experience dizziness and confusion
  * **Movement:** Character's movement becomes erratic and unpredictable
  * **Base Duration**: 10 turns (DURATION constant in Vertigo.java)
  * **Duration Reduction:** Duration is multiplied by Resistance factor (from rings of elements, etc.)
  * **Direction:** Character may move in random directions instead of intended path

==== Sources ====
Vertigo can be inflicted by:
  * **Confusion Gas** - Created when [[en:rpd:rotten_food_item|rotten food]] is eaten or thrown (25% chance). The gas lasts 150 + 10 × dungeon depth turns and applies Vertigo to all creatures in its area, refreshing the duration each turn.
  * **Horror Enchantment** - When used against the player hero
  * **Special abilities** of certain mobs
  * **Magical effects** or items that cause disorientation
  * **Environmental effects**

==== Counters ====
  * [[en:rpd:resistances|Resistance]] (from rings of elements) reduces duration via durationFactor()
  * Potions and items that cure status effects may remove vertigo
  * Some creatures may be immune to disorientation effects
  * Waiting for the effect to naturally expire
