Blizzard is a Scholar skill in Octopath Traveler.
Effect[]
Freezes all foes, hitting each enemy twice
Formula[]
Dmg = 2 hits x 0.945 x [Attacker E.Atk - (Target E.Def x 0.49)]
Boost: Increase damage dealt by +90% per boost.
Other Multipliers[]
- All damage scales with the level of the attacker (see Level Multiplier)
- All damage has a random multiplier (from x0.98 to x1.02) applied to it for each hit
- Critical hits deal x1.25 damage.
- Hitting an enemy with a weakness to Ice deals x1.3 damage (or x1.5 with Stronger Strikes); hitting a Broken enemy instead deals x2.0 damage
- The
Increased Elemental Attack buff on the attacker or the 
Decreased Elemental Defense on the target increases damage by x1.5; with both, the total multiplier is x2.25 - Having an Absolute Zero Staff or Battle-tested Axe equipped increases damage by x1.3; with both, the multiplier is x1.6
