This mutation grants the "Time Dilation" activated ability, which when used, will cause any creature within 9 tiles of the player to receive a [[Quickness]] penalty determined by their proximity to the player and the player's mutation level. This 9 tile radius is effective in a square area centered on the player, translating to a full effect area of 19 x 19 tiles.

Time Dilation

You distort time around your person in order to slow down your enemies.

Creatures within 9 tiles are slowed according to how close they are to you.
Duration: 15 rounds
Cooldown: 150 rounds
Distance 1: creatures receive a (level based) Quickness penalty
Distance 4: creatures receive a (level based) Quickness penalty
Distance 7: creatures receive a (level based) Quickness penalty

Time Dilation is a mental mutation that allows the player to distort time within a small radius, slowing other creatures caught within.

This mutation grants the "Time Dilation" activated ability, which when used, will cause any creature within 9 tiles of the player to receive a Quickness penalty determined by their proximity to the player and the player's mutation level. This 9 tile radius is effective in a square area centered on the player, translating to a full effect area of 19 x 19 tiles.

Time Dilation's Quickness penalty is calculated as a percentage of the target's base Quickness score. A creature's effective Quickness cannot be reduced below zero.[1] Time Dilation will always apply at least a 1-point Quickness penalty.[2]

Formula

The following formula is used to determine Quickness penalty based on proximity to the player and mutation level.[3]

Quickness Penalty
(9 - Distance)2 × (0.0005 × Level + 0.0085) × 100
