Not really a spoiler topic, but my last example is kind of a giveaway.

 

I have it repeatedly that paralized foes just get moving and casting while the clock still says, they're out for another few seconds. The last time I had it was on level 8 of the endless paths with a fampyr that supposedly was out for 12 seconds. Yet still he suddenly gets moving again and sure enough speed charms Aloth. I also had it with other enemies, some trolls and the likes.

 

So is this a bug or am I the only one having that problem?

Only thing I can think of is an Enemy Paladin casting Liberating Exhortation but I don't think any Fampyr has Paladin allies..

Nope, only vessels. And in the case of trolls, other trolls.

month or so ago we had a similar problem.  if we cast a paralyze effect on a critter that were already paralyzed, the critter would actual be cleansed o' the original paralyzation. got 8 seconds left on paralyze and had grieving mother target a troll with mental binding would result in premature freeing o' the troll from paralysis.  am not certain if this were ever fixed or if we simple became so annoyed that we changed tactics so that we avoided any possible layering o' paralysis.  

 

HA! Good Fun!

Yup, I have also experienced this. Thinking back, it seems to occur when an enemy is paralyzed and then prone'd. They start chasing my backliners around while their paralyze timer has a good 5-8 seconds left on it. Deeply irksome.
