Path of Exile 2 Hypothermia Mechanic FAQs
Can Hypothermia be triggered instantly?
No. The curse applies after a fixed 1.5-second delay. Use traps or mines to synchronize timing.
Does Hypothermia stack with other Cold Resistance modifiers?
Yes. It stacks multiplicatively with other sources of Cold Resistance reduction, including exposure and penetration.
Can Hypothermia be supported by Hex Bloom or Cursed Ground?
Absolutely. Hex Bloom spreads the curse on kill, while Cursed Ground allows for passive application in an area.
Does Hypothermia affect enemies already Cursed by another skill?
Yes, but it will overwrite weaker curses unless you use Profanity support or Curse limit modifiers.
Is Hypothermia effective against Cold-immune enemies?
No. Enemies with Cold immunity will ignore the curse effect entirely.
