Christmas is just around the corner. Some ‘Frosty’ themed Set Ideas.

MindOfTheSwarm · December 2023

Only focusing on the 5 piece bonuses.

Hypothermia:
Applying the Chilled status also applies Major Defile to enemies for 6 seconds.
Enemies affected by Major Defile take 30% more damage from Chilled.

Hoarfrost:
Applying Chilled coats your target in freezing ice. Causing them to take X Frost Damage over 10 seconds. This can stack up to 3 times.

Whiteout:
Increases the duration of your Frost skills by 6 seconds. Adds an additional 2 meters to your Frost area of effect skills.

Death Chill:
Your Critical Chance is reduced by 100%. Your Frost damage over time effects have 1% chance to deal 1000% additional damage.

i would love more frost sets to use with my wardens

thematically speaking, defile is related to disease dmg (as diseased status effect applies minor defile)

death chill sounds more like a mythic, as every normal 5 pc set has no downside, not to mention making your crit chance 0 also means you have 0 chance to crit heal too (a problem the malacath ring mythic had initially)

out of those i would like the hoarfrost one the most

or if a set actually created a roaming hoarfrost like the mechanic in cloudrest trial, or one of the ice storms from fates in sunspire

Seems fun. I like most of these ideas. We definitely need a (better) frost version of elfbane

You could get around that defile problem by changing it to this:

When you apply Chilled to a target you also apply the Diseased status. Enemies affected by Disease take 30% more damage from Chill.
