Powers[]

The following are powers in the Cold Domination powerset.

ColdDomination ArcticFog Arctic Fog[]

Your mastery of cold allows you to hide yourself and all nearby allies within thick arctic fog. Arctic Fog makes you and your allies harder to see and increases your defense to melee and ranged attacks, as well as your resistance to slow, fire, cold, and energy damage. You cannot use any other concealment type powers while using arctic fog.

ColdDomination HeatLoss Heat Loss[]

Heat Loss drains the heat from your enemies and transfers that energy to your allies in the form of endurance. All foes near the selected target may experience a heat loss, which will drain their endurance, slow them, and reduce their damage resistance. Each enemy target that is successfully drained of heat will expel that energy to all your nearby allies, granting them endurance and a boost to their endurance recovery. Some endurance and recovery will also be transferred directly to you and any allies near you.
