Frozen Core

Frozen Core
Description	Replaces Cracked Core. If you end your turn with empty Orb slots, channel 1 Frost.
Flavor	The crack in your core has been filled with a pulsating cold energy.
Rarity	Boss
Class	Defect

Frozen Core is a Boss Relic which can only be obtained by the Defect. It replaces Cracked Core and channels 1 Frost if you end your turn with empty Orb slots instead of channeling 1 Lightning at the start of combat.

Frost Orbs are added at the end of your turn but before the orbs trigger, meaning the new orb will add to your defense on that same turn.

You must possess Cracked Core for it to appear.

Interactions

• Capacitor, Runic Capacitor, and Inserter give more Orb slots for Frozen Core to utilize.
• Dualcast, Multi-Cast and Fission can Evoke Orbs, making room for new free Orbs.

• Fast channeling like Chill, Rainbow or Tempest can entirely invalidate Frozen Core, making it only give 1 or even 0 frost orbs.
• Consume reduces the number of orb slots, making it harder for Frozen Core to channel new orbs.
