Notes
Freeze is a bit more difficult to use than it seems. It may leave someone completely paralyzed, but also makes him invincible (though DOT spells will keep on ticking and dealing damage). The frozen target's cooldowns will continue and so will his mana and health regeneration.
Freezing an archer might end up with an automatic SOTW upon defreeze, actually helping him to escape. Freeze is best used against warriors, in order to keep a safe distance or catch one on the run. It can also be used against Mages, but it's recommended to run behind them to avoid being attacked upon defreeze.
With this in mind, is not recommended to use freeze in battle unless completely necessary. Be it to save one's life or stopping a flanking warrior that got to the back lines.
Note that Freeze does not deal damage, and cannot be cast on a player buffed with Divine Intervention.
