Description

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

A skill which imitates the wrath of the divine beast's dance. Lift a leg up high and stamp it down with great force. Sends a powerful wave of frost straight out along the ground. Can be charged to increase power and range.

Acquisition

• Can be granted to any infusable weapon or Thrusting Shield (except for Perfume Bottles) with the Ash of War: Divine Beast Frost Stomp.

Effect

The user raises their right foot up high, then stamps it down to the ground, sending forth an expanding wave of ice spikes, with each ice spike dealing 130 base Magic Attack Power and inflicting 70 points of base Frostbite build-up. After a brief moment, the spice spikes shatter, with each dealing 30 base Magic Attack Power and inflicting 110 points of base Frostbite build-up.

Charging the skill has the user hold their foot up high for a while longer, then stamps it down with great force, sending forth a great wave of ice spikes that travel a far distance, with each ice spike dealing 180 base Magic Attack Power and inflicting 70 points of base Frostbite build-up. After a brief delay, the spice spikes shatter, with each dealing 45 base Magic Attack Power and inflicting 110 points of base Frostbite build-up.

If performing without the sufficient FP or stat requirements, no ice spikes are created, and the stomp deals only 10 base Standard Attack Power when uncharged, and 15 base Standard Attack Power when charged.

The spikes start to spread on frame 26/0.87 seconds in. The skill takes 45 frames/1.50 seconds to perform.

Charging the skill delays the spike spread to frame 44/1.47 seconds in. The charged skill takes 63 frames/2.10 seconds to perform.

Boosting

• The Ash-of-War Scarab and Carian Filigreed Crest reduce the FP cost of Skills by 15% and 25% respectively.
• The Divine Bird Warrior Greaves boosts the damage of Kicking / Stomping Skills by 5%.
• The Shattered Stone Talisman boosts the damage of Kicking / Stomping Skills by 10% (5% in PvP).
• The Godfrey Icon boosts the damage of Charged Skills by 15%.
• The Warrior Jar Shard and the Shard of Alexander boosts the damage of Skills by 10% and 15% respectively.
  • The Warrior Jar Shard and the Shard of Alexander cannot be stacked together.

Strategies

• On larger targets (Erdtree Avatars and such) both the spikes and the shatter can each hit twice.
• A strong offhand skill due to its good Frostbite build-up and damage.
  • Does have somewhat mediocre range, at about 2 character lengths.
  • Assuming that both the spikes and the shatter only hits once, just two casts of this skill can inflict Frostbite on most enemies. Another two casts can inflict it on even fairly resistant enemies.

Trivia

• Used by Divine Beast Dancing Lions during their frost phase.
