 +====== Frost Arrow ======
  
 +{{ rpd:images:frostarrow_item.png|Frost Arrow }}
 +
 +The Frost Arrow is a special type of missile weapon that causes the Slow status effect when it hits a target. The arrow is created by using a [[rpd:potion_of_frost_item|Potion of Frost]] on regular [[rpd:common_arrow_item|Common Arrows]] in a process known as "moistening".
 +
 +==== Stats ====
 +  * **Damage**: 0-6 (baseMin: 0, baseMax: 6)
 +  * **Delay**: 0.75 (baseDly: 0.75)
 +  * **Min Strength Required**: 9 (setSTR: 9)
 +  * **Price**: 5 gold per arrow
 +  * **Image**: ''ammo.png'' index 6
 +
 +==== Special Abilities ====
 +  * **Slowing Effect**: When the arrow hits a target, it has a 25% chance to apply the Slow status effect for 5 turns
 +  * **Mechanism**: Uses Buff.prolong(defender, Slow.class, DURATION) where DURATION = 5f
 +  * **Chance Activation**: The special effect only triggers with a 25% probability on successful hits
 +  * **Bows**: When fired from a bow, damage, accuracy, and delay are affected by the bow's properties
 +
 +==== Acquisition ====
 +  * Can be created by using [[rpd:potion_of_frost_item|Potion of Frost]] on regular [[rpd:common_arrow_item|Common Arrows]] (moistening process)
 +  * Quantity typically ranges from 15-30 when randomly generated
 +  * Cannot be found naturally on the dungeon floor as a standalone item
 +  * Price: 5 gold per arrow
 +
 +==== Strategy ====
 +  * Effective against fast-moving enemies to reduce their mobility
 +  * Particularly useful against dangerous melee attackers
 +  * Can be used to gain time during difficult encounters
 +  * The slowing effect only occurs on a successful hit with 25% chance
 +  * More effective against fire-based enemies
 +  * Works synergistically with bow equipment that increases damage and accuracy
 +
 +==== Content Verification ====
 +  * **Information source**: Java class [[https://github.com/NYRDS/remixed-dungeon/blob/master/RemixedDungeon/src/main/java/com/watabou/pixeldungeon/items/weapon/missiles/FrostArrow.java|FrostArrow.java]]
 +  * **Stats verification**: Extracted directly from FrostArrow constructor and Arrow base class
 +  * **Effect descriptions**: Based on attackProc method implementation in code
 +  * **String resources**: Verified against values/strings_all.xml
