This claidhmore has Snowball flares unlocked, which can trigger when attacking.  This results in damage and secondary effects such as Staggered, Blinded, and Dazed.

This claidhmore can be EXHALED upon to activate Rime.  The effect lasts for 30 seconds and causes all attacks to flare the normal rhimar cold flare and the Snowball flare.  It has been used 0 out of 10 times for today.

Tier 1

At tier 1, greater rhimar weapons have cold flares like other rhimar weapons, and can generate snowballs.

Usage

Verb First Third
Lick You lift your sword up to eye level and carefully extend your tongue, feeling the cold at the heart of the sword even before you make contact. You steel your will and press your tongue to the freezing metal, clenching your eyes shut. After a half a heartbeat, you feel the icy bite of the frost forming on your tongue and jerk the sword away with a sharp exhalation of pain. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Sniff You lift your sword to your nose and inhale deeply, savoring the multilayered odors of metal and frost. As you near the end of your inhalation, you feel ice crystals forming inside your nostrils and turn your head away, snorting loudly. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Touch You run a hand across the metal of your sword, feeling the innate chill of the weapon down to your bones. As you do, you hear the faintest echo of a giggle, though it fades almost immediately. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Pull (produces snowball) You cup one hand around your sword and feel frost forming under your palm. You pull the hand free, the collection of frost forming itself into a glistening cerulean-laced snowball! This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!

Tier 2

At tier 2, each standard cold flare has a chance for an additional snowball flare, which does cold damage and applies Staggered, Blinded or Dazed at random.

Usage

Verb First Third
Listen You focus your concentration on your sword, and at the very edge of your hearing, you catch a snippet of laughter, though it fades almost immediately. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Spin Relaxing your grip on your sword, you allow it to dip into a quick arc. You tighten your grip once more, continuing the arc until the sword has come full circle. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Toss With a showy flourish, you toss your sword into the air, but a slight gust of icy wind crops up from nowhere, altering its trajectory just enough that you have to twist your wrist awkwardly to make the catch. The faintest tinkling of merry laughter reaches your ear from somewhere nearby. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Turn You turn your sword over in your hand a couple of times, feeling its weight. On the last turn, you hear a somewhat sinister scraping noise. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!

Tier 3

Tier 3 adds Blizzard, a cold-based ability similar to Major Elemental Wave, with limited uses per day.

Usage

Verb First Third
Bow A fine layer of frost races up the length of your rhimar warsword as you pull it close to your chest. You can feel the aching cold of the warsword as you dip into a solemn bow, but when you arise once more, the warsword's frost has vanished. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Clench (Blizzard) You deliberately tighten your grip on your rhimar warsword, and a sudden squall of icy air begins to whip around you! Within seconds, large chunks of ice and snow materialize inside the howling winds, pelting the area with frigid projectiles before vanishing as quickly as it arrived.

Tier 4

Tier 4 adds Rime, which causes every swing to double flare for 30 seconds, and has limited uses per day.

Usage

Verb First Third
Raise You thrust your rhimar warsword into the air, and you feel a chill crawl from it down your hand and arm. A howling noise, as of icy wind whipping through a gorge, sounds from somewhere nearby, and a layer of frost slowly forms along the length of the warsword, coating your hand and forearm as well. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
Exhale (Rime) You raise your rhimar warsword to your lips and exhale, your breath billowing out in an icy plume, obscuring the warsword from view. When you finish your exhalation, the obscuring fog dissipates, revealing that the warsword has been completely encased in jagged ice! This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!
