Frostbane

== /// SUMMARY ==
The Frostbane spellbook is a Mage weapon that can freeze enemies, dealing ice damage. It is unlocked at Wave 9 and is purchasable for $3,500.
==/// MECHANICS==
Frostbane will shoot out a homing ice projectile that chases down the nearest enemy when [LMB] is pressed. On contact, the ice orb will deal continuous damage, with a 10% chance to freeze enemies for 5 seconds. It cannot deal critical hits and has a Damage Contribution of 80%. 
The Frostbane's ice orbs will not home onto the same enemy twice, and after hitting an enemy, will swiftly home onto the closest enemy that it hasn't hit yet, as long as the other enemies aren't too far away.
As such, enemies will typically only take damage once for every ice orb casted, despite the ice orb being capable of continuously dealing damage. It is, however, possible for the ice orb to hit enemies that it isn't targeting if they happen to be in its path, which is best observed when attacking large groups of enemies.
Additionally, Frostbane's properties are altered by a few of the user's stats.
===// ICE ORB PROPERTIES=== 
*Fire Rate: The interval at which the ice orb deals damage.
*Effect Damage: The homing speed of the ice orb.
*Effect Duration: The duration of the ice orb.
*Special Chance: The chances of freezing an enemy.
===// MULTIPLIERS===
*Spirit: [x1.5]
*Armored, Structure: [x1.25]
*Boss, Miniboss: [x0.50]
*Calamity: [x0.25]
==/// STRATEGY==
#Frostbane performs significantly better when used against groups of enemies, having greater damage potential the more enemies there are nearby to home towards.
#The ice orb has a longer base duration than what might be expected, meaning that Frostbane can be used from far distances.
