If you'll scroll up to my previous post, you'll see why. Slow slows casting time and time between ranged attacks and movement speed by 50%.

Melee attack speed is not affected in any way.

Thanks for the clarification, it's an excellent illustration as to why posting at 2am is unwise :s

As stated by Dothorio a few posts up, Slow only affects movement speed, ranged attack speed and spell casting speed. It has no effect on melee attack speed.

I'm aware that at some point I'll just have to bite the bullet and spec Combat, but I'm a bit curious to see how long I can put that off.

Leotheras is an unusual one that's poison immune.

Just a little odd fact: Hydross is immune to all poisons in both phases, but he can take damage from Romulo's Poison Vial in his frost phase. I guess its because the trinket is categorized as a nature spell rather than a poison proc?

I don't think Leotheras is poison immune. Unless they changed him this patch as I was Mutilate on him once.
