==== Frostbite ====

Frostbite is an enchantment that increases the duration of the Frost debuff when an enemy is hit with the Staff of Frost.

=== Enchantment Ranges ===
  * **Gear Enchantment:**
    * Standard gear: Ice Shards ranges from **10 to 20**.
    * Legendary gear: Ice Shards ranges from **15 to 25**.

=== Maximum Values ===
  * The maximum possible Frostbite on all gear combined is **150**.


=== Mechanic Overview ===
When an enemy is struck by the Staff of Frost, the game calculates the duration of the Frost debuff based on frost damage versus enemy max health. Then total points of Frostbite enchantment applied across all equipped gear will increase this duration.


**Duration Modifier:**
  * The total points from all equipped Frostbite enchantments are summed up.
  * The duration of the Frost debuff is then modified by the following formula:
<code>
Modifier = 1 + 2 * (Frostbite / 150)
Duration = OriginalDuration * Modifier
</code>

**Example:**
  * Assume you have **75 Frostbite points** spread across your gear.
  * The base duration of the Frost debuff is increased by **100%**.
