Potions of lesser restoration do remove all the negative effects. Tested in Gullykin Crypts on a monk immune to poison and disease 10 september 2017. It also wears off on its own in approximately 3 minutes of game time.

Go to the Crypts on the Fields of the Dead. Potion of Lesser Restoration did not fully remove the ability damage, yesterday and the days before it...

Not my character, it was a monk character that I teamed up with. He got hit with Tyrant Fog - fog just as my character did.

For the details: it's a poison effect and the person who made these zombies thought the pnp fog was too weak so instead used the hezrou's stench script which works like that (after update) :

Poison effect (immunity protects), -4 STR/DEX/CON no save, DC 24 save against poison for being slowed on top of this, duration 3d4 rounds (for both effects).

I don't see any reason for lesser restoration to not cure the ability decrease once you're out of the AoE, if you're impatient.

Why does that give me sudden flashbacks? :oops:

If poison immunity protects, then I believe that Potion of Cure Disease should not strip away the effect. If something like that is desired, then it should be Potion of Antidote.

The Tyrantfog Zombies in the Fields of the Dead crypts with the Shadow Priests and Mummies have dropped my stats by -6 to STR/DEX/CON, and after drinking a potion of Lesser Restoration, I've maintained -2 to -4 in those stats.

Erm, somehow I feel I've started to talk in circles now...

Test next update to see if something is wrong and I'll look up more but for the fog they use that should be it.

Well I think he or she went overboard with it. Getting slowed down and sometimes even slower cause you are encumbered (heavily sometimes) is just silly. I understand that the mobs should pose a challenge. But please limit it to one ability only. I'd say constitution.

The xp you get from those zombies is a joke too, with that fog...

The duration is now 3d4 rounds, it was 30 rounds, so that should be enough like this ?
