at ring its says cannot be frozen in cham rune too :joy: its something new or need to switch old d2 and double checking isnt a bug ?

Holy Freeze aura can’t be countered afaik. When you’re killing the ennemy with teh aura you’re not frozen anymore tho.

have long break in old d2 but if good remember that cannot be happen its something wrong probably

both holy freeze and decrepify will still slow you down.

i looked it up when duriel made me blue even if i had a raven on.

Slowed and Frozen are 2 different things. Frozen is when your character is in a block of ice and cannot move, that’s what cannot be frozen prevents.

Frozen is from Ice spells, slow effect from aura/decrepify slow you down and can’t be avoid.

Yeah Holy freeze seems to go through everything. Even as a Paladin, cold immunes can be frozen. It’s fantastic.

I guess being on the other end sucks though.

Chilled vs Frozen

Chilled: Slowed but still can move. Has certain probability to shatter upon death. Players CAN be chilled via cold spells.

Frozen: Unable to move at all. 100% chance to shatter upon death. Players are IMMUNE to being frozen with or without the ā€˜Cannot be frozen’ item bonus. Players will be chilled instead when hit by freezing skills. Same with champions/unique/super unique/boss monsters - they cannot be frozen but can be chilled.

The ā€˜Cannot be frozen’ will prevent both chilling and freezing effect, but it does not prevent the chilling from the Holy Freeze aura.

Decrepify is NOT a cold spell. It’s a curse, so of course ā€˜Cannot be frozen’ has no effect.

Holy Freeze aura is special in that it will Always chill anything regardless of the immunity to cold or ā€˜Cannot be frozen’

slow movement with tornado to finish ww with high psn damage its fast way to die im not expert in skills cuz lots of time play only pvp niot pvm before just asking its realy can happen or is bugged

Make an Holy Freeze Zealot and watch everything move in slow motion :slight_smile: (except boss IIRC)

i thing its time to switch old game and check it

Let’s all just agree that the mechanics of holy freeze aura with ā€˜cannot be frozen’ are poorly implemented and very poorly communicated to the player, to the point I’m not convinced it’s not an old bug that was never fixed in the original game, along with the hundreds of other bugs that are known but not fixed.

If a game has an item that quite literally says ā€œcannot be frozenā€ and there is an effect that can freeze you (regardless of how different it is under the hood) then it’s bad design, plain and simply.

Holy freeze aura in general is very poorly coded, like how it can even chill enemies that are immune to cold.

The mechanic of the chilling, freezing and Holy Freeze aura was documented in The Arreat Summit compendium (I’m not sure if anyone uses it anymore?). The fact that they documented it there tells me that it was always intended and not a bug. Same with Cold Mastery not able to break immunity. That was documented too, hence why they recently fixed it.

I agree that the information should be more readily available to players.

Give him a jacket. Dude is running around with no shirt. He’s probably chilly.
