畏缩的角色可以全防御嘛？

[sleepinglord]

恐慌（Panicked）：恐慌的生物会扔掉任何手持的东西，并以最高速度尽力逃离恐惧源头，同样也会避开任何其它遭遇的危险，但路线随机。他不能做任何其他的动作。此外，恐慌的生物的所有豁免检定、技能检定和属性检定-2。如果被逼至绝路，恐慌的生物会陷入畏缩状态并且不会攻击，通常会在战斗中使用全防御动作。恐慌的生物会使用包括法术在内的特殊能力逃离；实际上，如果只能用特殊能力逃离，那么生物就必须用那种方式逃离。
恐慌是比惊惧和战栗更极端的恐惧程度。

畏缩（Cowering）：角色被吓住以至于无法进行动作。畏缩的角色AC-2，且AC失去敏捷加值（若有加值）。

这两个状态描述是不是有矛盾的？
从恐慌状态描述来看，似乎可以认为畏缩的角色可以做全防御动作？而畏缩状态描述来看则不行？

原文：

Panicked: A panicked creature must drop anything it holds and flee at top speed from the source of its fear, as well as any other dangers it encounters, along a random path. It can’t take any other actions. In addition, the creature takes a –2 penalty on all saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. If cornered, a panicked creature cowers and does not attack, typically using the total defense action in combat. A panicked creature can use special abilities, including spells, to f lee; indeed, the creature must use such means if they are the only way to escape.
Panicked is a more extreme state of fear than shaken or frightened.

Cowering: The character is frozen in fear and can take no actions. A cowering character takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class and loses his Dexterity bonus (if any).

我倾向于认为恐慌那里的畏缩只是一种描述性的说法

恐慌那里的畏缩应该只是个画面效果。
