Holy Freeze

From Diablo 2 Wiki

Required Level: 18
Prerequisites: Might, Holy Fire.
Synergies: The damage inflicted when Holy Freeze is active is boosted by:

Details: This aura chills and slows the movement and attack speed of all enemies within range. It also deals constant cold damage, and adds cold damage to the Paladin's attacks.

  • Holy Freeze is a very powerful enchantment, since the slowing cold can not be resisted or cured with any potions or antidotes, or even with "Cannot be frozen" equipment. Only teleporting spell casters can largely escape the discomfort of Holy Freeze.
  • Act 2 Mercenaries offer Holy Freeze, and are a quite popular hire for that reason.
  • Holy Freeze is also granted by the Doom and Ice runewords.
