Sacred 2:Icy Evanescence

Causes ice damage and decreases opponents’ ice resistance within a certain radius. Allied players receive a bonus to ice resistance. It can damage most monsters on screen. As well, if you are surrounded by numerous monsters when this Combat Art is cast, it will spawn 1 damage point (Will produce ice stalagmites). Can be modded for further damage, more monster resist reduction, reduction to monster movement speed, amongst others. Aspect - Source Warden Modifications Bronze Ice Needles - Increases ice damage. (50% increase) Freeze - Reduces target's movement speed. (20% + 0.5% per CA level decrease) Silver Fire protection - Improves protection against fire damage. (20% + 0.1% per CA level damping) Deep frost - Further reduces target's ice resist. (20% + 0.1% per CA level decrease) Gold Conservation - Reduces regeneration time. (50% + 0.5% per CA level decrease) Sustain - Increases duration. (50% increase) Skills The following skills will affect this combat art: Source Warden Lore Source Warden Focus Concentration Combat Discipline Usage Strategies Gather as large a mob as you can, then cast Icy Evanesence while they're all beating on you. If this is done well, each monster will be damaged by several of the damage points/ice spike, thus giving much increased damage, chance to freeze/slow, etc. Pros and Cons Pros Useful against very large mobs that aren't moving (ie, they're in melee range of you) Ice resist reduction could be useful when paired up with an ice High Elf Cons Very low damage Very low damage increase per level 15 second cooldown (not modified by Concentration, Source Warden Focus or Stamina) in addition to the regen If a monster moves off the damage point/ice spike, it won't take any damage Uncertain about this, the damage points seem to add spikes of damage beyond the fixed DPS. The aura deals DPS and the points deal additional spikes of damage I believe (Will test further soon) - Zinsho Stats Chart
