Freeze is an elemental Status Ailment associated with Cold that completely prevents the affected target from moving, attacking, or using any skills. It is still possible for players to use Flasks while Frozen.

Enemies that are killed while Frozen shatter into pieces, leaving no corpse that can be resurrected. A shattered corpse does not transfer status ailments with Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Elemental Proliferation" to nearby enemies. Enemies that take on a secondary form, such as the Shield Crab, do not morph if the first form shatters. Unique enemies can never shatter.

Freeze is typically inflicted by Critical Strikes of Cold Damage. There are other ways for Freeze to be applied as well. Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Freeze Mine". Please choose only one of the following ids:
FreezeMineSideAreaBoss - Deals (4-370) to (6-555) Cold Damage, Mine lasts 12 seconds, Always Freezes enemies, Freezes enemies as though dealing (173-2583)% more Damage, Enemies lose 15% Cold Resistance while Frozen (page)
ExileFreezeMine - Deals (4-476) to (6-714) Cold Damage, Mine lasts 12 seconds, Always Freezes enemies, Freezes enemies as though dealing (200-2246)% more Damage, Enemies lose 15% Cold Resistance while Frozen (page)
can Freeze targets but does not actually deal damage. Targets cursed with Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Frostbite". Please choose only one of the following ids:
WbFrostbite - Base duration is (5.00-6.00) seconds, (20-5)% reduced Freeze Duration on enemies, Cursed enemies have -(20-30)% to Cold Resistance, Hits against Cursed Enemies have +25% chance to Freeze (page)
Frostbite - Base duration is (8.00-11.80) seconds, +(0-1) metre to radius, Cursed enemies have -(17-36)% to Cold Resistance, Hits against Cursed Enemies have +25% chance to Freeze (page)
have a chance to be Frozen when hit with any cold damage. Skills such as Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Cold Snap". Please choose only one of the following ids:
MonsterColdSnap - Deals (10-2495) to (14-3736) Cold Damage, 10% chance to Freeze enemies (page)
WetaColdSnapOnDeath - Deals (11-5871) to (16-8806) Cold Damage, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, Deals (7.4-4077) Base Cold Damage per second, (0-10)% chance to Freeze enemies, (1-100)% more Effect of Chill, Base radius is 3 metres, Base secondary radius is 1.5 metres, Base tertiary radius is 3 metres (page)
have a built-in chance to Freeze targets.

The base duration of Freeze is proportional to the damage—or equivalent in the case of Freeze Mine—dealt by the initial hit of Cold Damage.

Let N be the Cold Damage dealt and L be the target's maximum Life. The Freeze duration D in milliseconds is then given by:

If N > L ÷ 3, then N = L ÷ 3
D = N ÷ ( L ÷ 100 ) × 100ms

If the duration would be less than 300 milliseconds, the Freeze effect is not applied. The maximum, unmodified Freeze duration from Cold Damage is 3.333 seconds.
