Zone Amplifier, Outburst, Super Slow

Torpor Wave is a Mastery trait available for the Staff of Sloth in 33 Immortals. When equipped, it transforms the Special Ability Torpor from a stationary area-of-effect slow into a wave-form projectile that moves forward across the battlefield, slowing enemies along its path.

Overview

Torpor Wave enhances the zoning utility of the Staff of Sloth by giving players the ability to project crowd control in a directional line rather than relying solely on placement. This allows Sloth users to control lanes, corridors, and moving enemy groups with greater reach and tactical flexibility.

Mechanics

• Changes Torpor from a static circular field into a slow-moving wave
• The wave travels in the direction the player is facing
• Slows enemies it touches for a duration based on the amount of Sloth consumed
• Still consumes all Sloth on activation
• Enters a cooldown after use (standard Torpor delay)

Benefits

• Can be used to slow distant or moving enemies
• Easier to cast from safety compared to static zone
• Allows for dynamic repositioning and mid-combat flexibility
• Covers wider horizontal ground when combined with Zone Amplifier
• Great for narrow lanes, chambers, and hallway-based fights

Best Synergies

• Outburst – More enemies enter pulse radius as wave travels
• Super Slow – Combines for back-to-back AoE control
• Zone Amplifier – Increases the width of the wave path
• Slow Duration+ Relics – Extends how long enemies are affected

Strategy

• Cast Torpor Wave down enemy spawn paths or during retreats
• Follow the wave to slow enemies while pushing objectives
• Chain wave with AoE teammates to create zone traps
• Use wave form to peel enemies off allies or protect revives from afar

Visual Indicators

• Replaces the normal Torpor casting circle with a visible wave
• The wave glows and distorts ground textures as it moves
• Enemies inside the wave show a slowed aura effect

Summary

Torpor Wave turns passive control into offensive momentum. By projecting your influence forward, you don’t just slow enemies — you lead the charge. In the hands of a skilled support, this trait makes the Staff of Sloth a commander of the battlefield in 33 Immortals.
