In-game Description

}}

”

Diminished Form is a permanent Affliction unique to Misery Mode which occurs from Stage 1 Misery (Day 2). It permanently reduces the maximum carry weight of the survivor and grants a Mobility Penalty to sprinting. Additionally it reduces the chance per-attack during a Struggle that the hostile wildlife will flee.

Note: Diminished Form does 'not' affect Climbing Stamina, if starting a climb at 100% of current Stamina, similar to other Stamina penalties like wearing Bearskin Coat.

Effects

-5kg Carry Weight
33% Mobility Penalty (Maximum Stamina is 66%)
Reduced chance of hostile wildlife fleeing during struggle (Wolf, Timberwolf and Poisoned Wolf)
