Notes from the wiki

  • Ice Spring does not stack Frostbite, despite inflicting a Cold status proc.
  • Though some enemies have a capped number of status effects they can receive, such as Bosses and Adversaries (usually capped at 4 stacks), applying a Cold proc to a non-Frozen enemy at max procs will still cause Frostbite to refresh and stack.
  • Stacks are granted and refreshed even on fatal damage instances that apply Cold.
  • If Primary Frostbite is equipped on multiple weapons simultaneously, as is possible with Exalted Weapons and Archguns, they will all share the same buff.
  • Primary Blight, a primary weapon arcane with similar effects except triggered by Toxin, can be compared to Frostbite, and both weapon arcanes yield very effective damage boosts with only slight differences.
  • With high fire rate weapons such as Glaxion (Glaxion Vandal, Tenet Glaxion), Verglas, or Tazicor, Primary Frostbite's max stack can be reached quickly.

The wiki page for this arcane doesn’t list specific abilities. You can add them in data/arcane-overrides.json.
