Description

For too long, memers and wannabe-comedians have hounded you with their "witty" quips and bad puns. With the Berate skill, you can finally put those unfunny ingrates in their place!

Details
Lugh, who may teach the player Berate.
Passively reduces the player's susceptibility to jokes, gags and funny people or things.
Berate puts an enemy into a "berated" state, decreasing their confidence and the damage of their melee attacks, and causing any ranged, alchemy or magic skills to miss, including AoE skills.
- Blaze's initial blow is considered a melee attack, while the explosion will miss entirely.
- Divinity attacks are treated as magic, and will miss while under the effects of Berate.
- A blue teardrop will appear above the target for the duration of the skill.
- This becomes three brighter teardrops if the target was already berated when affected by Berate.
- Using the skill on an already berated target will refresh the duration.
- Starting at rank 9, using the skill on an already berated target will also cause the target to become frozen (unless they possess Advanced Heavy Stander) and mortified for the skill's duration, further reducing their melee damage.
- While mortified, enemies take 20% increased damage.
- Berate does not deal any damage.
- Will not cancel the effects of an active Lullaby.
- Cannot be used on enemies with "Finish" over their name.
- Can be used through walls.
- Berate does not affect the Knockdown Gauge of an enemy.
- The exception to this is if an enemy is in the process of being knocked down, in which case they will not recover until either they are attacked or Berate wears off.
- An enemy affected by Berate is unable to load any skills for 2 seconds.
- Any currently loaded skill will be cancelled.
- Loading the skill with a microphone equipped will allow the user to use Berate repeatedly, up to 3 times.
- This does not incur an increased cooldown, and Berate's cooldown restarts after every use, similar to Arrow Revolver.
Enemies summoned by a target of Berate will be unable to act until the target is defeated or Berate wears off.
