Black Ice is a [[Wizard trait]]. This trait causes target frozen by the Wizard to take additional damage.
==Black Ice Properties==
'''Black Ice'''
* '''Clvl Req:''' 47
* '''Description:''' Frozen targets take additional damage from all sources.
* '''Max points:''' 3
** '''Rank One:''' Frozen targets take 25% more damage.
** '''Rank Two:''' Frozen targets take 50% more damage.Unknown.
** '''Rank Three:''' Frozen targets take 75% more damage.
* '''Lore: '''Not yet known.
It's not known if this applies only to frozen targets, or to chilled targets as well. Since [[Champions]], [[Bosses]], and other players in [[PvP]] can not be frozen (just chilled) that seems to limit the utility of this skill a bit. Also consider that anything frozen can be refrozen and kept frozen, thus dying helplessly with or without bonus damage effects.
==Classes==
This is a [[Wizard traits|Wizard]]-only trait.
==Synergies==
Wizard spells that can freeze targets include:
* [[Ice Armor]]
* [[Frost Nova]]
[[Ray of Frost]] and [[Blizzard]] only chill; they do not freeze. (Though perhaps a [[runestone]] might add that property, making them eligible for a bonus from Black Ice?
This might be a useful trait for a [[Battle Mage]], since Ice Armor adds to armor as well as freezing melee attackers.
