Hit	Type	Multiplier	How often

What it scales with

Ice hits use Magic Power.
Damage bonus: Ice Damage and Magic Damage from gear and the tree, added together into one bonus.
Magic Power = Intelligence x1, Charisma x0.5, Adventure x0.5, plus flat Magic Power from gear and the tree. Archetype passives add: Elemental Ranger Adventure x0.25, Earthshaker Strength x0.5, Echo Weaver Agility x0.5.
One hit = power x (1 + bonus / 100) x (1 - the target's defence share) x the hit multiplier, rounded up. A critical hit then adds your Critical Damage.

Hold to fire one minor javelin at once, then more while Concentration lasts. Minor javelins have no charge phase and always use the full charge factor.

Chilling Javelin

No Chill is consumed, so the Chill damage bonus, Shattering, Splintering and Flashheating get 0 Chill.

Flashheating Javelin

	Without	With
