Cold damage overlay

Cold Damage is normally less damaging than fire, but any accompanying cold length can chill, reducing attack rate and movement speed, and summing with Slows Target, Decrepify, Holy Freeze, and (D2R only) Impale, although no unit can be reduced below 15% attack rate or 25% velocity. [1] [2] The magnitude of this effect is determined by the target's chill effectiveness. [3]

  • Damage of multiple types can be applied by the same attack, but only one damage overlay is displayed at a time: this means that cold damage can still be applied even if the only overlay displayed is for fire, lightning or poison damage.
  • It is not added to Smite or Lightning Bolt.
  • Targets turn blue until the slowing effect of cold length expires. This takes precedence over turning green while poisoned, but poison damage is still applied (although there will be no visual indication that it has expired unless cold length expires first).
  • Cold length applied by player, mercenary or pets is reduced to 1/2 in Nightmare and 1/4 in Hell.
  • Cold Resist reduces both cold damage and cold length.
  • Half Freeze Duration will halve cold length but it has no effect on cold damage.
  • Cannot be Frozen prevents cold length from being applied.
  • Cold length does not apply to units that are Immune to Cold or which have 0 chill effectiveness.
  • Drinking a Thawing Potion after cold length has been applied will remove it.
  • When cold length is applied to a target that has already been chilled, it will overwrite the existing length if it is equal to or greater than the existing length.
  • If a monster dies while chilled, there is 20% chance that it will shatter and leave no corpse as long as at least 1 frame (0.04 second) of cold length applied after its cold resistance (but before any difficulty level penalty). This does not prevent it from dropping items, but it will prevent a Barbarian from using Find Potion or Find Item.
