    Here is an old post saying Slow does work on bosses

    Also a video of me killing bigfoot as a 3rd job mage with slow, posted on this forum 4 years ago:

    https://forum.maplelegends.com/index.php?threads/mages-cant-boss-lv110-bf-solo.23129/

    You can see me use slow on it throughout the video, like right at the beginning for example, although it is admittedly hard to see how much slower bigfoot is because the video is x4 speed. I can 100% assure you it used to work on bosses. I have killed bigfoot, papulatus and headless horseman with it in the past.

    We can't have mages casting (-40 speed) slow on bosses, it'd steal the thunder of bm's (-60 speed) effectively passive slow. :mad:

    I'm pretty sure slowing bosses got bugfixed at some point for both slow and hamstring, but wizards were just never given the ability back.

    I believe this is not a bug, only hammstring works, maybe it is something that can be revised

    As I showed in a reply above, it used to work on this server many years ago. No patch notes have mentioned intentionally changing it since then. If it's decided that giving BM a unique utility over giving mages another utility, so be it
