Harnessing the freezing might of the far North, the caster conjures a lance of razor sharp ice crystal, and launches it at a target. The Ice Spear pierces armor and flesh alike, rocketing towards an enemy and exploding in a blast of deadly rime. The blast will freeze the blood of its target, locking them in place for a substantial duration. Enemies pierced by the spear take significant damage, but will avoid the paralysis of the main explosion.

Description on the official Path of Exile website [1]

Ice Spear is a cold spell that fires a shard of ice that pierces close enemies and explodes on a distant enemy, with increased critical strike chance.

Skill Functions and Interactions

Increased Chill Duration: Chill effects caused by either form will last longer than they normally would for the given damage value.

Multiple Stages: This spell has two forms. The first form has 100% natural piercing. Once the projectile reaches a preset distance from the caster, it will instantly change to its second form. The second form will not pierce enemies without modification, but has a 600% increased chance to critical strike. With a base critical strike chance of 7%, the second form will have 49% chance to critically strike, before other modifiers. Ice Spear will do full spell damage to monsters hit in either form.

Projectile Speed: x% increased Projectile Speed will not affect the distance at which the spell changes to its second form, but will increase Ice Spear's travel speed.

Piercing: Increased Chance to Pierce will not affect the first form, but can cause the second form to pierce enemies while still retaining its Critical Chance bonus.

Fork and Chain: In the first form Ice Spear doesn't Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Fork" or Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Chain" but in the second form it does and stays at the second form after it.
