Jailer
,→Strategy
Jailer is often inconvenient and scary, but as it's only cast occasionally and the duration is fairly short it's not usually lethal. The biggest danger, other than being hit by enemy attacks that you can not move to avoid, comes from other [[Boss Modifiers]]. Though Jailer does no damage, it can pair with deadly [[AoE]] properties like [[Arcane Enchanted]], [[Plagued]], [[Desecrator]], or [[Mortar]] to destroy an immobilized character.
Players need to learn not to panic and to keep fighting while jailed -- new players often freak out and spend all their time struggling to escape, rather than continuing the battle. It's also helpful to know which of your skills can and cannot escape the jail, so you do not waste resources using skills that won't help. For instance, Demon Hunters can not break out with [[Vault]] or the backflip from [[Evasive Fire]], though they can cast those skills while jailed, wasting [[Discipline]] while moving not an inch, and potentially having no resource left once they are free.Debuff removing skills and effects, such as using the Demon Hunter's [[Smoke Screen]] can benefit a player who needs to escape being Jailed quickly.
