The Winter's Bite凛冬之咬

Specialization relationships

The Winter's Bite is one of three specialization choices offered to Skorn in the recovered specialization-choice sheet, listed at position 2 of the three. Skorn is a Tank hero of the A Temple guild, tagged Poison, Stall in the balancing sheet. An attack range of 1 puts them on the front line. Base Health 950 sits clearly above the roster average of 805. Defense 60 is the highest value in the roster. In the game's lore, Skorn goes by "The Bulwark" — "Let them try. I'll take it gladly.". The mana curve runs 30 starting Mana into a 105 pool, regenerating 4/s. Picking this choice links Skorn to the passive ability The Winter's Bite.

How The Winter's Bite differs

  • It carries the Frost tag, which the other two choices lack.
Balance history · 0.5.3 – 0.5.8

No balance changes in 0.5.3 – 0.5.8 for The Winter's Bite. The specialization sheet record is identical across the extracted 0.5.2 (build 24436268), 0.5.4 (build 24690909) and 0.5.8 (build 25188298) snapshots, and so is the linked ability's record. Skorn's own kit was touched (Base stats; Retribution (signature passive); The Haughty (active specialization, Come At Me!); Stun immunity while casting (behavior)), but none of those entries concern this specialization.
