Weak

Version 0.14: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Weak is a status effect which reduces the target's melee damage output until sufficient time has passed: in essence an anti-might. It reduces monster melee damage by 33% (exactly cancelling out monster might), and player melee damage by 25%.

You can instantly cure yourself of weakness through use of Elyvilon's Purification ability.

Sources

• Your melee attacks may inflict weakness if you have the Black Mark demonspawn mutation. The monstrous version of Black Mark does not include weakness in its list of possible effects.
• An orange demon's sting inflicts weakness on the victim (negated by poison resistance).
• Elyvilon will inflict you with weakness if you kill an apis.
