We have an article that explains Status Effects here: [https://gemsofwar.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000335886-What-are-Status-Effects-and-how-do-they-work-](https://gemsofwar.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000335886-What-are-Status-Effects-and-how-do-they-work-)

(It is missing enchanted but we will update it soon to add that).
