{{Intro}}
[[File:Terror.gif|right|frame|Overlay above fleeing target.]]
*Hit Causes Monster to Flee applies chance for normal and minion monsters (with [[Altering AI|a few exceptions]]) to flee immediately upon a successful attack. Does not overwrite existing [[curse]] on targets to which it doesn't apply.
*Applied by any melee or ranged attack with the exception of [[Blade Sentinel]], [[Blade Shield]] and the additional arrows of [[Multiple Shot]] (only applied by the original two arrows).
*Although percentage is displayed, chance is actually measured in 1/128ths (subscript numbers below). Chance from multiple items equipped is summed, although when [[two weapons]] are equipped only that of the primary or attacking weapon is added (that of the other weapon is ignored). >100% is redundant.
*Fleeing effects have their own hierarchy, so those higher on the following list cannot be overwritten by those lower:
#[[Grim Ward]]
#[[Terror]]
#Hit Causes Monster to Flee
#[[Howl]] [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/113968-chance-to-cast-and-curse-tests/&do=findComment&comment=1423916]
*Casting order with curses from [[Chance to Cast]] modifiers depends on trigger event, equipping order and skill/stat order.
*Overwrites Hit Blinds Target when both bonuses are applied by the same item to the same attack.
*Cannot overwrite [[Confuse]] or [[Attract]].
*Can be overwritten by any other later curse.
*Monster may continue fleeing after expiry until its next AI check.
