arcane blade + frozen status = game crashes

Arcane bade is unplayable for me because the game crashes a lot when you're in an ice cube and you hit the ice cube.


My opinions on what's causing the bugs:

1) You're stuck in an ice cube and arcane combat doesn't know what to target

or

2) ice damage is trying to freeze the ice cube, which crashes the game.

This is a known issue. Short of recompiling the C code of the game, the best thing you can do to avoid the bug destroying your progress is to save extremely frequently and use excessive caution when dealing with iceblocking enemies.

Alright then.

Since I can't even program a toaster, I guess I'll just save more frequently. It's still kinda discouraging to play arcade blade, because all the hard bosses early on tend to freeze your ass.



Other potential solutions:

Get stun immunity up to 100%
avoid using ice melee weapons
providence

Thanks for the quick reply.

It's not the ice effect, it's the ability proc. Alchemist golem's eye beam does the same thing. 100% stun immunity would completely eliminate the problem, yeah, but I find it's a lot more practical to just save a lot. =p
