One handed weapon with ice damage and caster

[claudius 104]

I'm looking for a one handed weapon with ice damage, and that would be equipable for a high elf.

Well, since she can't use Hafted Weapons (proficiently anyway) that leaves Staves (Shadow Weaver), Polearms (Torik's Wrath), Bows (Dragon's Nemesis) and of course Swords:

• Ice Flash
• Kuan's Pride
• Flashing Glaive of Atherton
• Ysandrifa's Law
• Icingdeath

 

Ice is a rare find on weapons. Of course any weapon can have ice damage if you socket it with an Ice Crystal. Are you going for multi-damage types on 1 weapon?

 

I think Desert Saber is a really good melee weapon for casters.

Ice is a rare find on weapons.

 

so true!

Do you think that because of it's secondary effect, it actually results in a better overall kill speed?

Or perhaps just a higher survivability?

Remember Thorin's summary of enemy resistances? Ice is the least resisted element overall in enemies. Maybe it's made more rare because of that, for balancing reasons.

Thanks Flix. I think I will just try and shop a magic staff with the bargaining network.
