Outriders Status Effects Explained
Status Effects are temporary negative effects used against enemies in Outriders. They are similar to a debuff and enemies have access to them as well.

In total, there are 8 status effects in Outriders:
- Ash: Enemies are immobilized and can’t perform any actions.
- Bleed: Enemies receive damage over time.
- Burn: Enemies receive fire damage over time.
- Freeze: Enemies are immobilized and can’t perform any actions.
- Slow: Enemies are slowed down.
- Toxic: Enemies receive toxic damage over time.
- Vulnerable: Enemies get more damage from all sources.
- Weakness: Enemies can’t damage you as much.
Both Ash and Burn status effects are best for crowd control. Freeze is also for this purpose. Meanwhile, use Bleed and Toxic are perfect for increasing your damage output. Dealing damage over time is most effective when using Burn as it does the most damage.
