'''Frost''' is a [[brand]] that [[ranged weapon]]s may have. A ranged weapon with the frost brand will cover with frost (this identifies it), will turn any [[missile]]s that it fires into bolts of frost, which are completely resistible, and increases the damage by 40%. Frost bolts have a [[mulch]] rate double that of regular ammo, but frost launchers do not affect the mulch rates of their ammo.
 
 
 
==Strategy==
 
The resistibility of missiles of frost somewhat hinders the desirability of this brand: against resistant monsters, you will find yourself doing ''less'' damage than you would with unbranded weapons (or even no damage, against immune monsters), unlike the case with melee weapons.  A launcher of frost is not a good item to enchant, as it will be useless against many foes.  Ammunition of frost is reasonably good to keep around, but due to the high mulch rate, it will be quickly expended.
