Cold Arrow

Magically enhances your arrows or bolts by adding cold damage. Cold arrows only do half of their regular damage.

This is similar to the Sorceress

Ice Bolt spell. Monsters will be chilled when hit with

Cold Arrow. When killed, chilled monsters have the chance of shattering, where they'll leave no corpse.

This can be handy when dealing with monsters that raise corpses, such as Shaman.

Before focusing more than one point into this skill, keep in mind that

Ice Arrow and

Freezing Arrow are available at higher character levels.
