Skills and Attributes
The following skills will affect this combat art:
- Armor Lore - will indirectly increase the ice resistance bonus by a percentage (after it is added to the player's other sources of armor).
The following attributes will affect this combat art:
- Stamina will lower regeneration time penalty
Usage Strategies
- This is a premium buff for an Ice Sorceress. It protects from ice damage and adds a percent to defense rating, in addition to causing low level ice damage to all surrounding enemies.
- Bronze and Silver mods: the offensive choices are Freeze and Cold Mastery which will debuff enemies. Cold Mastery works like reverse damage mitigation, increasing enemy sensitivity to all ice damage. It can pierce ice immunities and affects even enemies without any ice resistance.
- Bronze and Silver mods: the defensive choices are Frozen Armor and Rime Armor.
- Gold mod: Expertise is the mod of choice for Sorceress who are specializing in other aspects, because it will reduce the regeneration penalty. Ice Sorceresses may find this mod redundant because this buff already has a negligible impact on Cold Spells regeneration times. They may prefer Chilling Armor instead which will boost all inflicted ice damage from all spells and weapons.
