Online:Frost Damage

This article is about The effect in combat. For Scribing script, see Frost Damage (script).

Frost Damage is a type of magical damage. It is not that commonly seen outside of the Warden class, as none of the other classes have a skill line devoted to it. Some enemies do use it but not many—Frost Atronachs being the most notable.

Frost Damage can cause the Chilled Status Effect, which applies the Minor Maim debuff to the target for 4 seconds, reducing their damage dealt by 5%. Chilled also deals an additional single Frost Damage tick, and makes targets more vulnerable to certain subsequent Frost Damage effects (such as Wall of Frost) which can further apply the Immobilize debilitating effect.

WeaponsEdit

All Ice Staves.
All weapons enchanted with a Glyph of Frost (using a Dekeipa runestone). Note that staves may be enchanted with a different elemental damage, so a single staff could do both Frost and another type of damage.
