Does silence really work? How can I tell? My pet....

I gave my pet a silence spell and it seems most of the time it is cast right as enemies are dead. But during boss fights (even if it would affect them) it's usually too chaotic to notice if it works I guess the get rings around their heads. I read it as "prevents users from using abilities" but that does that just mean spells or all powers?

I have to admit a combat log would be great to see a play by play of whats happening.. i too used silence but later removed it for as many zombie spells as i could load along with heal all..its alot going to on to really visually see .. i do see my pet "casting" or using it but what its silencing is unknown.

here's a good way to check:

Mapworks boss General Gnash summons several (insanely overpowered) mage minions when you fight him.
silence prevents mobs from using spells for X seconds, so if those guys suddenly try to melee you - it works.
however, I think it does not work on the boss itself, because some bosses are completely helpless without spells and the game doesn't allow that to happen.
