Icicle Mine throws a mine that when detonated fires several long-range icicle projectiles in random directions that deal cold damage, launching more icicles with more consecutive mine detonated. The mines have an aura which grants increased critical strike chance against enemies in the aura.

Skill Functions and Interactions

This article is a stub. Please help improve the article by expanding it.
  • The innate aura effect of this skill (Each Mine applies 10% increased Critical Strike Chance to Hits against Enemies near it, up to a maximum of 500%) has a base radius distance of 35 units and are scaled by modifiers to area, including those specific to auras.[1] Increased aura effect will improve the bonus per mine near an enemy, but will not affect the maximum bonus.
    • This modifier applies globally, and can be used to add crit chance to other skills by maximizing the mine duration without detonating it.
