How to Obtain
You can get it as a random reward from a Witch’s Special Synthesis, which fuses one stat gear (a gear that boosts a stat) and one effect gear (a gear with a special effect) of the same tier. The result is a random Unidentified Abyss Gear, and every Fusion has a 4% chance of it being a Greater Abyss Gear.
Additional Info
- How to Trigger it: Greater Frostward is a passive bonus. It raises your Ice Resistance as long as the equipment it is slotted into is equipped.
- Cost Considerations: It is not tied to a skill, so it adds no extra Stamina or Spirit cost. Unlike the regular tiers, it has limited durability that wears down with use, and it may only just last through a tough boss fight.
- Related Abyss Gears: Flameward and Shockward do the same for Fire and Lightning Resistance.
- Recommended Use: Save it for the toughest ice bosses, and use Frostward III for exploring Pailune and other cold regions.
