Crystal Dimming

Weapon Ranged Red

“The earth remembers every frost”

Overview

Crystal Dimming is a mid-line snowball cannon upgraded from Snow Blindness, using snowballs for ammo. Left click lobs crystal shells that raise glacier spikes from the ground where they land. Right click pushes a glacial wave along the terrain, raising a rising ridge of ice spikes as it travels.

Combat Behavior

Left click: crystal shells

Hold left click to lob crystal shells on a steady rhythm, spending one snowball each. A shell drifts and dips slightly in flight, applying about 4 s of Frostburn on a direct hit.

When a shell ends (on hit, on a wall, or at the end of its flight), it raises 2 glacier spikes from the ground directly below:

• Spikes last about 2 s, deal damage the whole time, apply about 5 s of Frostburn, and can chill enemies to slow them
• The more existing spikes near the spot, the taller the new ones grow
• With no ground below, the shell scatters ice shards in all directions instead

Right click: glacial wave

Push a wave that hugs the ground toward the cursor, dealing about 1.2× the left-click damage. As it travels it raises a spike every short step, each taller than the last, up to a ridge of about 16 before it fades. It climbs small ledges and falls off cliffs to find new ground.

Right click has about a 1.3 s cooldown, and left click briefly pauses after using it.
