Description

Creates a freezing snowstorm by firing crystals from the Cylinder. Frozen enemies cannot move and take greater damage from physical attacks. Damage increases with a higher average of your Max HP, Max MP, and Max Stamina. (Material: 2 Water Crystals, 1 Wind Crystal)

Details

• Shoots a gust of Ice formed from Water and Wind at the opponent, giving a chance to freeze them.
  • A target successfully frozen has their Defense and Protection lowered depending on Frozen Blast's rank.
  • Frozen Blast also deals damage to the selected target, whether or not if they were successfully frozen. This damage is calculated from 6% of an average of Maximum Health, Mana, and Stamina; for example, if the user had an average of 100, the skill would deal 6 damage to the selected target.
    • The damage is dealt at the end of the skill execution.
      • If the damage is high enough to kill the selected target, that target is defeated immediately, rather than at the end of the Frozen Blast.
• Frozen Blast completely ignores Passive Defenses.
• Frozen Blast affects everything in its linear radius.
• If an enemy is frozen by another alchemist's Frozen Blast, you may still receive training experience for killing them while frozen.
  • This also applies to Cai and Leymore.
  • Any target caught within this radius may be frozen for a fixed amount of time.
  • Stationary monsters are more likely to be frozen than moving ones.
  • Monsters targeted while executing Frozen Blast will always aggro the player.
    • Other monsters caught in the skill's radius will not aggro the player, unless their AI calls for it.
• The skill prevents enemies from retaliating or being knocked back, leaving them open to attacks.
  • Unlike Ice Elven Magic Missile or Ice Mine, targets frozen by Frozen Blast may be attacked continuously for the duration of the skill's effect as they will not be knocked back by any attack, and monsters are not knocked down when the skill ends. However, the frozen monster's Passive Defenses can still activate.
    • Attacks that leave frozen enemies in a Deadly state will, however, knock them back without thawing them.
  • Once the frozen effect wears off, a frozen target may immediately retaliate on adjacent players.
  • Stun is still applied while frozen and will not be canceled even if the target thaws during the stun period of a received hit.
• It is possible to use Frozen Blast through obstacles, including Barrier Spikes.
• Freezing time is dependent on the Frozen Blast rank, Alchemy Mastery, Wind Alchemy, Water Alchemy, and the type of Cylinder used to execute the skill.
  • This is calculated by (Freezing Time * {1 + 5*[Alchemy Mastery Bonus + (Water Alchemy Mastery Bonus + Wind Alchemy Mastery Bonus)/2]}).
    • Water Cylinders add 2 seconds while Wind Cylinders add 1 second.
      • Enchants, Upgrades and other Time related modifiers only get added in after the fact.
• Freezing rate is based purely on the rank of Frozen Blast.
  • The maximum effective freezing rate appears to be 90%.
  • Certain boss type enemies, such as Iria's Giant Field Bosses, may not be frozen regardless of their Combat Power.
  • Can not target a player while Berserk is active.
• The skill's animation takes roughly 2-3 seconds to complete, and once it is successfully completed, the skill will have a cooldown period of 30 seconds.
  • This skill cannot be canceled during its animation, even if no monsters are frozen. However, if a monster attacks the player before the animation is finished, the cooldown of the skill won't take any effect.
• Frozen Blast will not cancel Play Dead even though the icon is temporarily deactivated.
• You cannot use Frozen Blast on an enemy with "Finish" over them.

Obtaining the Skill

Calming the Snow Storm

How to Get Quest	Talk to Dorren in Taillteann with the Skills Keyword with Rank A Water Cannon and Rank Novice Synthesis
Briefing	If you want to learn Frozen Blast, which allows you to contain a snow storm inside a crystal and use it to freeze an opponent, come see me. - Dorren
Objectives	Talk to Dorren Collect Snowballs Deliver a Snowball to Dorren Use Frozen Blast
Rewards	15000 Experience Points Frozen Blast skill
Additional Information	You may obtain Snowballs from hitting the snowmen in Sidhe Sneachta, a custom-built snowman in the Physis Homestead or defeating Snowfield Spiders. In order to complete “Collect Snowballs”, you will have to get the snowball dropping by yourself. Neither having a snowball beforehand or obtain it from other people will work.

Training Method

Tips

• The freezing effect from an Ice Dragon's summon counts as if the enemy was frozen with Frozen Blast.
  • This can be used to quickly gain successes for "Win a battle against a frozen (x) enemy".
    • A party member's pet and Frozen Blast also contributes to this provided you are the one who kills the enemy.
• The Kitchen Dungeon is ideal for the "Freeze a boss-level enemy." requirement.
• Elemental Wave increases freezing chance.
