Levitate

“	Target becomes aerial and cannot move, attack, or use skills. Duration halved if Weight is greater than 3.	”
	—In-game tip

Levitate is a debuff in Arknights.

Effect

Only enemy units that can be Levitated. In this state, the enemy is disabled (as if they are Stunned) and are treated as an aerial unit, which have the side effect of making the enemy unaffected by terrain hazards such as Heated Paths and can only be attacked by ranged units, and subject to modifiers against aerial enemies (e.g. Meteor's Anti-Air Specialist, Cutter's Crimson Crescent).

Enemies whose weight are 4 or higher will only be Levitated for half as long.

Trivia

• Interestingly, Levitate can actually be used to prevent enemies that are scripted to land on a Hole from being defeated; if a ground enemy is Levitated while over a Hole, they will safely move towards the closest ground tile when it expires.
