Gem level progression

Gem level progression section doesn't display added cold / base damage progression per gem level. —0xF  16:08, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Fixed it, but I think you could have done so yourself, it was fairly trivial --OmegaK2 (t|c) 16:16, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Thank you. Will do next time :P I hadn't noticed any difference with Herald of Thunder page source initially —0xF  21:11, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

"Damage cannot be Reflected"

"Herald of Ice has two separate effects on the player"

How does this third effect work? Damage added from this ability cannot be reflected, or all damage? I can't reflect damage to enemies? - Annan (talk) 11:59, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

It means the damage from Herald of Ice cannot be reflected. —Vini (t|c) 13:07, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

"Critical strike chance for spells will not apply"

Herald of ice has no base critical strike chance therefore critical strike chance for spells will not apply

but with a +#% to Critical Strike Chance modifier Herald of ice recives a critical strike chance and then it can be scaled with Critical Strike Chance

sources for +#% to critical strike chance

 - Increased Critical Strikes Support lvl20     = +2% to critical strike chance
 - Rare Helmet Craft                                 = Socketed Spells have +3% to Critical Strike Chance
 - Assassin ascendancy Deadly infusion          = +1.5% to Critical Strike Chance

so to clarify support gems like Increased Critical Strikes Support will work because it comes with a built in +#% to Critical Strike Chance modifier

If Herald of Ice Crits it can create a chain reaction where it causes enemies to be frozen from its own critical hits and explode
