Editing Freeze (status)

: ''This article is about the status effect. For the weapon special, see [[Weapons#Freezing|Freeze]].
[[File:Freeze.png|20px|link=]]'''Freeze''' is a status effect in ''PSO''. It can be applied by:
* a {{Trap|Traps#Freeze trap|freeze trap}},
* casting {{Gibarta}} or {{Rabarta}},
* a special attack from a Blizzard-series weapon,
* a [[Deldepth]]'s or [[Gol Dragon]]'s projectile attack,
* a breath attack from [[Sil Dragon]] or Gol Dragon,
* a blue [[Epsigard]] attack,
* a [[Crimson Assassin]]'s spit attack
{{Gun|rare|Frozen Shooter}} and {{Gun|rare|Snow Queen}} will also randomly freeze the player if equipped for too long.

==Mechanics==
Freeze, [[confuse]], [[shock]], and [[slow]] cannot affect the same player or monster at the same time; if a player or monster is inflicted with any of these statuses, they will lose any others they have. Freeze will suppress flinching animations and invulnerability frames, making it a very dangerous status effect when surrounded.

===Players===
Freeze lasts for 5 seconds, but they can end the effect earlier by having level 7 {{Anti}} cast on them or by repeatedly moving left and right. Freeze prevents players from moving, attacking, casting techniques, or using items. Players with a {{Unit|rare|Cure/Freeze}} equipped are immune to freeze.

===Monsters===
Freeze lasts for 5 seconds, and the effect cannot have its timer reset by reapplying it midway through the duration. Freeze prevents monsters from moving or attacking. [[Epsilon]], [[Zu]], [[Pazuzu]], [[Dorphon]], [[Dorphon Eclair]], [[Girtablulu]], and all bosses are immune to freeze. Frozen monsters' EVP is reduced by 30%.

===Special attacks===
Players and monsters can be frozen using the special attack from a Blizzard-series weapon. Provided the attack connects, each special has a different chance of success.

Androids receive a 30% boost to the activation rate of all freezing specials on Ultimate difficulty. This value can be added directly to the values in the Power column (for example, Frost would have a power of 78%). {{Unit|rare|V501}} and {{Unit|rare|V502}} give an additional 50% boost to the activation rate of freezing specials; these stack with the android boost, but not with each other. 

<pre>
Base Freeze Chance = ((Power) - (ESP)) * (Special Reduction)
Freeze Chance = min((Base Freeze Chance), (Difficulty Cap)) * (Unit Boost)
</pre>

The <code>Difficulty Cap</code> is 40%.

|-
|1★ || Ice||32%
|-
|2★||Frost||48%
|-
| 3★||Freeze||64%
|-
|4★||Blizzard||80%
|}

{{Gun|rare|Frozen Shooter}} and {{Gun|rare|Snow Queen}} have special mechanics with freezing targets; if the projectile from their special attack connects, it has a 100% chance to freeze any non-immune enemy.
