Frostbearer Effect / Skill

Weapon Skill: Frost Burial

Frostbearer Gameplay & Tips

Catalyst For DPS

Frostbearer has an ATK sub-stat that is great for DPS catalyst users. In addition, the passive can summon an icicle that deals additional AoE damage in a small area around the target.

Icicle That Deals AOE DMG

Frostbearer passive

When hitting with Normal & Charged Attacks, Frostbearer has a chance to summon an icicle above the enemy that deals extra damage in a small AoE for every 10 seconds; the Aoe DMG scales with the user's ATK. In addition, the damage is increased if the target has a Cryo status.

Does Not Apply Cryo Or Trigger Cryo-Related Reactions

When the icicle hits the enemy, the damage done by the icicle is Physical. This means that the icicle itself cannot apply Cryo to the enemy or trigger melt.
