#"Slowed" Status effect is not spread by ritualist's prime perk Vile on enemy death

The description of the Infected debuff reads : "On death, spread all statuses to nearby enemies within Xm". However, SLOW is not spread.

Experimenting with status effect duration (Timekeeper's jewel ring, Affliction trait), damage increases (Ritualist's Wrath perk, Ahanae's Ring) as well as the description on the fetid wounds mutator (3% increased crit chance per status effect on target, up to 15%) has lead me to believe SLOW is meant to be a status effect.

If this interaction is intended (spreading SLOW sounds too strong), I think the description of the Infected debuff could be fixed by specifying "damaging statuses" are spread.

Tested with Misfortune Melee Mutator, Stasis Beam mod and Scrap Shot mod on Losomn Nurses and multiple Labyrinth enemies. Can be further tested/duplicated by killing any slowed enemy next to a non-slowed enemy with ritualist equipped as primary archetype.

I did some testing and hope we get clarification about slow as a negative status effect. It's treated very inconsistently. Or maybe it's bugged for some items/perks. Tested all relevant items with the word "status" in the description.

Things that proc with slow as a status effect:
Chains of Amplification
Death-Soaked Idol
Fragrant Thorn
Nightweaver's Grudge
Sinister Totem
Executor Mutator
Misfortune Mutator
Ritualist Damage Perk Wrath
Ahanae Crystal
Band of the Fanatic
Timekeeper's Jewel
Eruption Skill (Ritualist)
Affliction Trait

Things that don't treat slow as a status effect:
Reaver Mod (Ritualist Scythe)
Ritualist Vile Prime Perk
Black Spinel
Lighthouse Keeper's Ring

**Unknown/Unable to test: **
Fetid Wounds Mutator

Added to list to look into

Since SLOW is not a damaging status effect, the Prime Perk Vile should not proc with SLOW and spread to other enemies.

thanks, that's what I expected. Spreading SLOW would be way too strong. So could we fix the description of the perk then, and also fix stuff related to what @ split found ?

we've looked at the list, and if it wasn't working we fixed it, if it's not "fixed" in the next patch it's working as intended
