* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Bob shuffles around slowly, has an awkward speech pattern, lacks understanding of some basic social cues, and seems to have trouble looking at people directly for very long (especially avoiding extended eye contact). Hardy has said that he played the character as having a mild form of autism.

* MagnificentBastard: [[BewareTheNiceOnes Bob Saginowski]] is the meek, mild-mannered bartender at "Cousin Marv" Stipler's bar, a drop location for the Chechen mob to collect protection money. Romancing the troubled Nadia Dunn, taking in the abused puppy Rocco and menaced by Nadia's ex and Rocco's owner Eric Deeds, Bob [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass steadily reveals a far more dangerous side to him]]. In truth, a [[RetiredMonster dangerous former killer]], Bob is the true murderer of a missing man, whom he killed so he and Marv could take all his money. After luring out Deeds, Bob reveals this fact just before murdering him as well, later inheriting Marv's bar after Marv's scheme to rob the Chechens goes wrong. [[KarmaHoudini Completely getting away with Deeds' murder as well]], the investigating detective can only note that none of Bob's prior victims ever see him coming.

** The stun status effect in general, really. Anything that has a high probablitiy of inflicting it (like Stoneslide) can just be repeatedly cast until an enemy dies, and there's nothing they can do about it.
*** However, the flipside of this is that enemies have these spells too, so ''you'' can easily find yourself stunlocked to death as well.
** Spells that inflict confusion are similarly powerful, since the status effect usually causes enemies to waste a turn.
** Forced Purification. It's not quite as gamebreaking as the spells listed above since it doesn't inflict any status effects, but it makes up for it in sheer damage potential. It has a damage multiplier of 2.0, and deals additional damage to humanoids (which are often the toughest enemies) -- against a noxious foe, it's almost always a guaranteed one-hit kill.
