🧊 How Ice Cube Works

Mechanics

On every hit, there is a 20% chance to apply Ice.
Ice can freeze enemies, briefly stopping movement and actions.
Item is Legendary and available by default in the item pool.

Tip

Freeze uptime scales with how many times you hit — multi-hit or rapid-hit weapons can keep packs locked down.

✓ Advantages

Reliable crowd control against fast mobs
Pairs well with stun/slow chains for near-perma control
Enables safe chest opening and objective play in late waves

✗ Disadvantages

RNG-based; streaks without freezes can happen
Legendary rarity: chance to appear is lower
