Not to be confused with Frosty Flare, a rogue weapon sold by the Archmage.

The Frost Flare is a Hardmode accessory that is dropped by Cryogen.

When equipped, all of the player's attacks and projectiles inflict the Frostbite debuff. It also grants immunity to Frostburn, Chilled, and Frozen, as well as reducing damage from "cold attacks". Additionally, it increases all damage by 10% when above 50% health, but grants 20 defense and increases the player's movement speed and acceleration by 15% when below 50% health.

Like the Warmth Potion, this accessory reduces damage from all enemies and projectiles that inflict the Chilled debuff by 30%. This is calculated separately from and is applied before defense and damage reduction calculations.

Notes

• There is a 25% chance for Frostbite to be inflicted for 6 seconds, a 37.5% chance to be inflicted for 4 seconds, and a 37.5% chance to be inflicted for 2 seconds.
• The cold resistance granted by this accessory does not stack with the Warmth buff.

Tips

• The Frost Flare is extremely effective for farming Cryogen after its first defeat and has significant benefits for the Frost Moon event.
