Electrified is a debuff that causes the player to take significant damage when moving horizontally (-16 health per second) and a smaller amount of damage when not moving (-4 health per second). The damage inflicted by this debuff is capable of killing or severely weakening players relying on constant movement to avoid damage from enemies. Using a hook or teleporting with a Rod of Discord will not increase damage. Pressing ◀ Left or ▶ Right when unable to move (hooks, blocks, other debuffs, etc.) will also increase damage.

Notes[]
- Technically, the -16 HP/s life draining only happens if player presses ◀ Left or ▶ Right controls, whether player is actually moving is not the reason for it happening.
Trivia[]
- Dying from the debuff will display one of the unique death messages:
- "<Player name> couldn't contain the watts."
"<Player name> was turned into a battery.""<Player name>'s positive lifeforce became negative.""<Player name> became a lightning rod."
- The method in which Electrified damages the player is similar to how static electricity shocks people when they rub a static surface.
Although the tooltip is "You cannot move", this debuff still lets the player move freely.
