'''Heart of Ice''' is a [[persistent]] [[buff]] [[skill]] granted by equipping a {{il|The Whispering Ice}}.
[[Heart of Ice]] is a [[persistent]] [[buff]] [[skill]] exclusively [[Granted skill|granted]] by {{il|The Whispering Ice}}.
==Skill functions and interactions==
==Skill functions and interactions==
===Levels, Quality, and Sockets===
The level of the skill is tied to {{il|The Whispering Ice}}. [[Heart of Ice]] has four [[Gem socket|gem sockets]] at levels 16-19 and five at level 20. The level can further be increased by {{il|Cold Mastery}} and other sources of skill levels, but this does not grant additional sockets. Level modifiers include the modifier {{c|mod|+(2-4) to Level of all Cold Spell Skills}} present on the staff. [[Quality]] grants more [[chill]] magnitude inflicted and is based on quality on {{il|The Whispering Ice}} but can be granted by other sources.
===Chilling Presence===
The default [[Presence|presence]] radius is 4 metres. The ''as though'' wording causes [[chill]] to be calculated based on expected damage, which can be increased as normal through spell and cold damage modifiers as well as chill and [[slow]] magnitude modifiers. However, [[Heart of Ice]] deals no damage. It also cannot apply [[exposure]], as it does not [[hit]]. Enemies are chilled immediately upon entering the character's presence, but chill is not reapplied until about one second later if it is consumed by [[payoff]] skills like {{il|Icestorm}}. Targets which leave the character's presence are immediately unchilled. If [[Heavy Snows]] is allocated, [[Heart of Ice]] will still only apply one chill to each target in range.
===Supports===
[[Heart of Ice]] can be supported by all [[persistent]] [[buff]] [[support gem|support gems]]. The only two support gems that have actual effects on the skill are {{il|Slow Potency}} and {{il|Cold Mastery}}. Unusually, it can also be supported by some gems that have no actual effect by virtue of the skill dealing no damage because of the ''as though'' wording. These include {{il|Armour Demolisher I}}, {{il|Rapid Casting I}}, and {{il|Potent Exposure}}.
Additional Effects From 1-20% Quality: (1-20)% more Magnitude of Chill inflictedSkills can be managed in the Skills Panel.

Chilling Presence
The default presence radius is 4 metres. The as though wording causes chill to be calculated based on expected damage, which can be increased as normal through spell and cold damage modifiers as well as chill and slow magnitude modifiers. However, Heart of Ice deals no damage. It also cannot apply exposure, as it does not hit. Enemies are chilled immediately upon entering the character's presence, but chill is not reapplied until about one second later if it is consumed by payoff skills like IcestormIcestormBarrageable, Spell, AoE, Sustained, Cold, Duration, Payoff Level: (1-20) Cast Time: 1.20 sec Critical Strike Chance: 11.00%Conjure a hail of icy bolts over the targeted area.
