Glacial Hammer in action

Where Infernal Blow burns hot, Glacial Hammer freezes to the bone. The spell infuses a Mace or Staff with the essence of pure ice, making a weapon so cold it can barely be handled. A successful hit from Glacial Hammer deals grievous damage, and if the target is already frozen and near death, it will shatter into thousands of shards. The more skilled one becomes at inscribing the runes for Glacial Hammer, the greater the frostbite becomes, eventually leaving most foes frozen solid.

Deals damage to an enemy, with some physical damage converted to cold damage. If the enemy is frozen and has less than one third life remaining, they will shatter when hit by Glacial Hammer. As the skill levels up, damage and chance to freeze increase. Higher quality Glacial Hammer gems deal increased damage. Requires a mace, two-handed mace, or staff.
