Frost Buff
Frost is a status effect in Remixed Dungeon that temporarily freezes a character in place, preventing them from moving or acting.
Effect
- Immobilization: Affected characters cannot move or perform actions
- Duration: The freeze lasts for a specific duration (base duration is 5 turns, modified by Resistance)
- Removal: The effect wears off over time, can be removed by fire damage, or by certain means
- Stacking: Does not typically stack with other movement-impairing effects
Application
The Frost effect can be applied through various sources:
- Potion of Frost - When shattered, creates a freezing cloud
- Wand of Frost - Direct damage and freezing effect
- Ice Elementals - Can apply frost through attacks
- Ice Traps - May apply frost when triggered
- Freeze Globe Spell - Spell that creates freezing effects
Immunities and Resistances
- Some enemies are immune to freezing effects
- Certain armor or items may provide resistance
- Flame-resistant characters may have reduced duration
Strategic Considerations
- Benefits: Can be used to temporarily disable enemies during dangerous encounters
- Risks: Affects both enemies and allies, so use cautiously in group situations
- Timing: Most effective when used on single powerful enemies
- Counters: Affected characters can be targeted more easily while frozen
Mechanics
- Applied through the Freezing.java blob effect
- Character remains in place until duration expires
- Does not interrupt ongoing actions that were already started
- Frost effect causes paralysis, completely preventing action
- Burning effect is removed when frost is applied
- Frost effect is removed when the affected character takes damage
