Blizzard is a freezing weapon special. It is the highest tier of freezing specials (4★). Blizzard weapons have a chance to Freeze.pngFreeze their targets.

Damage

Blizzard weapon special attacks deal 0.67x the damage of a normal attack. The chance to Freeze.pngFreeze monsters depends on Enemy ESP.

Rarity Special Name Power
4★ Blizzard 80%
Base Freeze Chance = ((Power) - (ESP)) * (1 - Special Reduction)
Freeze Chance = min((Base Freeze Chance), (Difficulty Cap)) * (Unit Boost)
  • 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 (Blizzard has a power of 110%).
  • Special Reduction is as follows (See also: List of weapons with reduced specials):
  • Unit Boost is as follows:
    • 1.5 if either Unit icon.pngV501 or Unit icon.pngV502 are equipped
      • These stack with the android boost, but not with each other.
    • 1 if neither are equipped
  • Difficulty Cap is 40%.

Epsilon, Zu, Pazuzu, Dorphon, Dorphon Eclair, Girtablulu, and all bosses cannot be Freeze.pngFrozen. Characters equipped with a Unit icon.pngCure/Freeze are also immune to being frozen.

List of Blizzard weapons

There are three weapon types that can have specials. Specials on common weapons dropping from Monsters or Item boxes are randomly assigned, but are predetermined on all rare weapons. Specials on ES Weapons can be added with Tool icon.pngPhoton drops.

Rare weapons

Although Gun icon.pngFrozen Shooter and Gun icon.pngSnow Queen do not follow the rules of freezing specials, they are still listed here as the strongest weapon option to Freeze.pngFreeze monsters.

Common weapons

The chance of obtaining specials on common weapons depends on area and difficulty. When a common weapon drops in an untekked state, there is a chance for it to come with Blizzard as a special. Blizzard can also be obtained by tekking up a common weapon that drops with the Freeze special. Once a weapon drops in an untekked state, the table below lists the overall chance of it coming with the Blizzard special (including the ability to tekk up from Freeze).
