Lady Hestra's Rune of Winter FAQs

Is this rune suitable for ranged attack skills?

Yes. As long as the skill is attack-based (not a spell), including bows and thrown weapons, it benefits from the added cold damage.

Does it affect freeze chance?

Indirectly. Higher cold damage increases the chance to freeze, but the hit must exceed the freeze threshold. Best paired with critical strike builds.

Does it synergize with cold penetration or chill mechanics?

Fully synergizes. Cold damage benefits from penetration, and chill mechanics enhance survivability and crowd control—ideal for high-pressure combat.

Is it suitable for physical-to-cold conversion builds?

Absolutely. It provides a reliable source of cold damage, and works well with conversion affixes and passive nodes for efficient scaling.

Is it viable for leveling or endgame builds?

Both. During leveling, it helps clear packs quickly. In endgame, it synergizes with crit, freeze, and penetration mechanics for burst damage and control.
