ok...
annoying as this is, it's nice to see different things being put ingame.
that said - could we at least get some sort of indicator put in to let someone you might be grouped with KNOW that you are paralysed? ie when you are drowning, you thrash around and turn blue, poisoned you turn green, etc? and maybe like some means of removing the damned thing? it's annoying to search a room, get gassed by cache, get paralysed, and have no way of letting the other person know you didn't just suddenly wander off from the keyboard - if you're in an area with wandering aggro stuff, it can be downright dangerous.
also... I miss spelldamage, can we have it back please?
