Creeping Frost

Fire an icy projectile that bursts on impact or when reaching the targeted area, dealing area damage and creating a chilling area that deals cold damage over time. This area will creep across the ground towards nearby enemies until its duration expires.

How this skill fits a character

The projectile hit and the lingering cold area perform different jobs. Aim the travel path and final ground effect deliberately rather than assuming every modifier improves both portions equally.
