What Is It?
A 2-piece ice set composed of the Frost Crown helmet and Ice Armor body armor. Each piece gives modest armor plus cold protection on its own; equipping both activates Frost Ward: ice damage heals you, normal hits carry frostbite, and you freeze attackers. It also gives you pale-blue breathing eyes and frost mist at your feet. An elemental defense and counter set, with lower clearing damage than the Dragon Descendant and Dragon King sets.
Set Pieces
- Frost Crown (helmet): quality 6, Head Armor +5, Cold Protection +1, item ID 500053
- Ice Armor (body armor): quality 6, Body Armor +5, Cold Protection +1, item ID 500054
- Durability: 100
- On death: like the Dragon King set, these drop with the rest of your gear (they are not bound), so bring them knowing you can lose them
- Repairable at the workbench; check its condition before a raid
How to Get It
- "???" boss drop: killing "???" rolls once for the set: Frost Crown 20%, Ice Armor 20%, 60% nothing. It also has its separate 50% Frostmourne drop; the two never interfere. Vanilla raids count too, no BossRush run needed. Inside the arena it lands in the mod reward crate; in Infinite Hell it drops on the ground.
- Dingdang's Shop: both pieces at affinity level 6, 1 in stock each (restocks every time the shop opens), 30000 per piece.
- Never in any random pool (Wish Fountain, daily sign-in, ordinary boss crates). These two routes are the only ones.
2-Piece Effect: Frost Ward
Activates when both pieces are equipped (screen notification appears). Your eyes glow pale blue and a ring of frost mist follows your feet.
Passive:
- Ice damage resistance +50%
- 50% of the ice damage you take is refunded as healing (next frame, green numbers)
- Cold Protection +2 in total
Frostbite (on normal hit):
- A normal hit on an enemy adds 5 ice damage and has a 35% chance to freeze the target it struck
- Maximum once every 1.1 seconds (internal cooldown, independent of rate of fire)
- The added damage is a flat value and never scales with weapon damage, so fast weapons gain nothing extra
- Only direct weapon/grenade hits count (DoTs and the set's own damage don't trigger it)
Freeze Counter (on hit):
- When struck by an attacker within 5 meters, 30% chance to freeze that attacker
- Maximum once every 5 seconds
- Triggers regardless of attack direction; any hit from close range qualifies
- Uses the set's own freeze effect first; falls back to vanilla Cold, then to a temporary slow, if the asset is missing
Tips
- Frostbite is steady control: at most one freeze every 1.1 s, and switching to a faster weapon does not make it fire more often. Use the freeze window to reposition
- Ice refund is especially strong against freezing special zombies and ice bosses
- 30% freeze proc fires frequently in melee brawls; the 5 s cooldown is permissive compared to most reactive pieces
- Base armor (Head +5 / Body +5) is low, so it's not a pure tank set; it lives on control
