Glacial Cascade

Glacial Cascade is a cold spell that launches a wave of icicles. Damage from this skill converts physical damage to cold damage.

Skill functions and interactions

  • Area of Effect: Glacial Cascade fires as a set of multiple area of effect circles in a line. Increasing the Area of Effect increases the size of each circle, but the distance between the center of each circle and the effective range don't change. Instead, larger areas overlap with each other more. This can allow you to hit an enemy several times with a single cast much more reliably.

  • Multiple Hits: Each circle in the Glacial Cascade overlaps partially with adjacent circles, meaning that enemies standing in the spell can be hit by multiple area of effects in one cast (depending on the enemy's hitbox). Decreasing the Area of Effect makes it easier to hit a single enemy multiple times due to more tightly grouping circles. However, even at the maximum Area of Effect possible, an enemy will usually be hit twice in one cast except for the exception below.

  • Melee Range and Full Range: An enemy close enough to the caster may sometimes only be hit once because they are only under the area of effect of the closest circle. Likewise, an enemy at full range may sometimes also only be hit once because they are only under the area of effect of the furthest circle.

  • Note: Despite what the spell may look like, Glacial Cascade is not a projectile. Thus, effects that normally affect projectiles such as Lesser Multiple Projectiles Support do not have an effect on Glacial Cascade.

Can be used in left mouse button slot to cast and move.
