— In-game description

Frostfang is a legendary axe crafted in the Mystic Forge. It is named after Frostfang, Jormag's champion whom Asgeir Dragonrender slew with a single blow.

Lore[edit]

Frostfang

Hlif traveled to the Far Shiverpeaks to challenge Jormag. Near death, she took one last swing at her foe before falling unconscious. She awoke the next morning—her axe encased in an icy dragon's head.

Graphics[edit]

Frostfang is an icy dragon-headed axe covered in scales. While drawn, the mouth of the dragon chatters and emits a frosty breath.

Aura

The arm wielding Frostfang is encased in a block of ice and frost, which emits a foggy vapor.

Draw/Stow effects

When drawn, the sound of a cold wind can be heard and ice swirls up the arm of the hand wielding Frostfang.
When stowed, an icy aura pulses from the mouth and tiny bits of snow fall.

Footfalls

The user leaves behind icy footprints.

Kill animations

Enemies killed by Frostfang will display chilled death animations.

Sound effects

Successful melee strikes and ranged projectiles hits will sound like crumbling ice for all skills. This effect can get loud when striking multiple times such as with Whirling Defense or Imaginary Axes with several clones using Mirrored Axes and Infinite Horizon.

Skill effects

Default class weapon trails are replaced with icy trails.
Ranged skills will throw Frostfang instead of the default projectile. This effect changes the following skills:
- Warrior: Throw Axe, and Throw Rock (downed skill).
- Revenant: Essence Sap (downed skill) and Frigid Blitz.
- Ranger: Path of Scars, Ricochet, Splitblade, Throw Dirt (downed skill), and Winter's Bite.
  - Soulbeast: Any projectile from Soulbeast pet skills such as Narcotic Spores.
- Necromancer: Dhuumfire, Dark Path and Life Blast.
- Mirage: Phantasmal axes thrown by Imaginary Axes and the Mirrored Axes trait.
