Desirability

Using the Frostbite can be more than a little irritating, it's noisy while fighting and constantly stirs up more foes. On the other hand, it provides one level of Cold resistance, flying ability and occasionally freezing clouds without any spell hunger costs, which may come in handy in escaping the enemies the *Noise inevitably brings. In addition, the Freezing brand may help out in cold-blooded creatures such as hydras, nagas, dragons, and draconians

History

Prior to 0.19, Frostbite did not grant immunity to its freezing clouds.

Frostbite was added in 0.18.
