Load Ice Shards
Load your Crossbow with a clip of icy bolts that rapidly fire at the ground, leaving a shard of ice at the impact location that arms after a duration. After arming, the ice shards explode when enemies step on them, dealing more damage the longer they have been armed, up to a maximum. Using this Skill again reloads the clip.
