Universal Frost
「When all creation falls into silence, only eternal frost shall blanket the world」
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Universal Frost is the final upgrade of the snowball gun line—a blizzard machine using Snowballs as ammo. Normal fire keeps insane rate plus frost nova orbs; sustained shooting builds heat until the next shot triggers Glacial Age, spawning icicle arrays and a blizzard field at the cursor.

Combat Behavior
Section titled “Combat Behavior”Normal Fire
Section titled “Normal Fire”Each shot fires:
- 4 bullet-form snowballs with spread and speed jitter; ~half the time damage drops to 1/3, with chances for larger size, +6 pierce, or extra velocity updates
- 1 Frost Nova Orb: slow flight with homing; bounces off walls at 1.8× speed and drops 4 ice spikes; on hit explodes with 8-direction frost beams, shard particles, and 4 s Frostburn
Continuous firing gradually speeds up, down to about 0.08 s per shot.
Glacial Age (Charge Mode)
Section titled “Glacial Age (Charge Mode)”After ~25 normal shots at max fire rate, enter ~1.2 s charge. The first shot in the frenzy fires:
- 12 empowered snowballs + 6 ice chunks
- At the cursor: many ice bursts and antler ice spikes
- A large blizzard field (~3 s): Frostburn inside, 1/3 chance Frostbite Slow, +15 armor penetration for your attacks in the zone
- Screen shake and sound
One Glacial Age shot ends frenzy; build another 25 shots to recharge.
