What do all these status effects do?
Dazed, dazzled etc. What is the diffrence between a dazed state and a stun state? The in game encylopedia has nothing on these effects. In conversations I can click on highlighted words for a little synopsis of what people are talking about when they mention far away cities but these combat effects are a mystery. I tried looking them up online but since the Pathfinder rules are copyrighted there is no quick rundown of what all these various terms mean. Only forum posts of people discussing them which don't always make sense to people who don't know what they mean to begin with.

Could a description for all the status effects that can affect someone in combat like sleep, blinded, deafened, dazed, stunned, dazzled, trip so on and so forth be added to the combat section of the encyclopedia for those of us who have never played Pathfinder or own any source books please.

There's a lot of effect and item descriptions that seem to be missing or aren't fleshed out. =/

They're just not explained... at all. If you're not familiar with D&D rules in general, you've really got to go searching. Thankfully search engines are good and it isnt that hard but a more percise explantion of effects should be available in game.

I agree that you should not be forced to read the SRD just to find out what common status effects mean.

That should be easily addable. There are a f-ton of lists that have extracted those explanations from the SRD and I do guess that owlcat owns a license. :)

I knew Pathfinder was d20 but didn't realize these effects were the same from 3.5. Like maybe Paizo changed a few things. Still, my old books are stored somewhere and I don't feel like digging them out. Thanks for the link, it has everything I needed to know and more.

I read the d20pfsrd thing on dazed and it basically says you get -1.. which is nothing like the spell description for Hypnotism which says the enemies who fail a save "stand around and stare at you in a dazed condition"... Maybe its just poor working, but there's a big difference to -1 and standing around doing nothing but staring... I guess I'll just have to take the spell and find out how it works.

Exactly and its same with all stuff.
I wish this game had nothing to do with D20asdgjs;dja so i could at list get a clear google search even if i fined something.... There is always a question is it the same in the game? How was it implemented?...
Bottom line, this should be in the game in encyclopedia at the list!
Best would be a debuff UI for enemies... Just like we have for Companions... why why was this overlooked i dont know... its basic RPG ♥♥♥♥... Love the game thow:)
