 ==== Ice Shards ====
-Ice Shards is an enchantment that increases the damage dealt by the Staff of Frost.
+Ice Shards is an enchantment that increases Frost damage dealt by the Staff of Frost by a hidden factor or formula, which can be adjusted for balance as needed.
-=== Mechanic Overview ===
+=== Enchantment Ranges ===
-When using the Staff of Frost, the damage dealt is modified based on the total points of the Ice Shards enchantment applied across all equipped gear. Each gear item can hold up to 25 points of Ice Shards.
+  * **Gear Enchantment:**
+    * Standard gear: Ice Shards ranges from **10 to 20**.
+    * Legendary gear: Ice Shards ranges from **15 to 25**.
-**Damage Modifier:**
+=== Maximum Values ===
-  * The total points from all equipped Ice Shards enchantments are summed up.
+  * The maximum possible Ice Shards on all gear combined is **150**.
-  * The damage dealt by the Staff of Frost is then modified by the following formula:
-<code>
-float modFrost = 1.0f + ((1f / (1f + Mathf.Exp(((-iceShardsPoints * 0.05f) + 5f)))) * 3f);
-</code>
-Note: For the effect from armor to apply, the weapon must be enchanted with any type of enchantment.
-**Example:**
-  * Assume you have **100 Ice Shards points** spread across your gear.
-  * The damage dealt by the Staff of Frost is modified according to the formula, increasing significantly based on the points invested.
+=== Damage Calculation ===
+The total Ice Shards value from all equipped gear pieces (weapon and armor) is used when calculating the final Frost damage output.
+**Note:** For the effect from armor to apply, the weapon must be enchanted with any type of enchantment.
+=== Graphed Preview of Formula ===
+The graph illustrates a S-curved progression, which is designed to reflect how the Ice Shards enchantment impacts damage.
