The listed reduction is 20% for 15 seconds, but published sources give different proc chances, so the exact chance depends on the version or configuration.
How Overbearing works
Overbearing is an armor effect associated with Black Ox Armor, not a general-purpose active mutation. Its trigger is performing a charged attack; when it activates, the affected creature deals less damage with its attacks. The Grounded Wiki status-effects reference describes the effect as a 20% reduction lasting 15 seconds.
Why the listed proc chances differ
The chance depends on which source and scope you mean. The wiki’s detailed entry lists a 33% chance. Obsidian’s official Patch 1.0.4 notes say the Overbearing proc chance with a full Black Ox Armor set was increased from 30% to 80%. Those figures do not establish one universal current chance: the patch note documents a historical full-set change, while the wiki gives a separate 33% figure. Neither source establishes the current live tooltip value.
| Source and scope | Reported chance | What it establishes |
|---|---|---|
| Grounded Wiki status-effects entry | 33% | Detailed Overbearing effect entry; 20% enemy attack-damage reduction for 15 seconds. |
| Obsidian Patch 1.0.4 | 80%, up from 30% | Historical proc chance with the full Black Ox Armor set; does not confirm the current value. |
Do not confuse Overbearing with the armor set bonus
Obsidian’s Patch 1.0.4 notes separately state that the Black Ox Armor set bonus adds stun damage to melee charge attacks. That is a distinct benefit from Overbearing’s reduction to enemy attack damage.

Grounded 2 is a separate case
These figures describe the original Grounded. Grounded 2 has a separate status-effects reference; the available entry does not confirm that the same Overbearing mechanic or numbers apply there. Do not assume the original game’s values carry over.
