Usage Strategies Frost flare is best used for sniping. It has relatively low damage, but compensates with a rather serious combat art range. Zoom out as far as you can, advance carefully and start sniping the enemies from far away. Be careful with enemy groups where hitting one mob will turn all of them aggressive towards you. In those cases use a crowd control combat art instead. Pros and Cons Pros Decent damage over time Very long combat art range Great for fast sniping Does not aggro surrounding mobs as long as they are not a group Reduction in movement speed increases with consecutive casts on the same enemy The Damage over Time also stacks with consecutive casts (as long as the previous DoT effect lasts) Cons Relatively low damage Does not work against groups of enemies Hard to balance between damage and regeneration time Stats Chart
