Damage equivalent to % CA is subtracted from cold damage remaining after CR. Damage equivalent to CA is subtracted from cold damage remaining after % CA. Healing equivalent to total cold damage absorbed is applied. Cold damage remaining after total absorbed is applied. The net result depends on current life at time of healing: actual healing = min(maximum life - current life , total cold damage absorbed), so maximum healing only occurs when current life ≤ maximum life - total cold damage absorbed. There is a ceiling of 40% CA, so there can never be a net life gain from % CA. Thus it performs a similar function to CR, so when current life ≤ maximum life - total cold damage absorbed, effective percentage damage decrease as a result of CR and % CA is as follows: Percentage damage decrease = CR + ((100-CR) * CA/50) % Cold Absorb Item Helm Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder (10-15)% Hearth helm 35 Yes (D2R only) Pelt Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder (15-25)% Spirit Keeper Earth Spirit 67 No Club Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder (5-15)% Nord's Tenderizer Truncheon 68 No Sword Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder (7-15)% Frostwind Cryptic Sword 70 No Ring Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder 20% Raven Frost Ring 45 No Cold Absorb Item Helm Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder +(5-9) Nightwing's Veil Spired Helm 67 No +0.25*lvl Griswold's Valor Corona 69 No Shield Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder +(6-11) Spirit Ward Ward 68 No +0.625*lvl Blackoak Shield Luna 61 No Belt Value Source Min Rlvl Ladder +15 Snowclash Battle Belt 42 No
