Introduction

_______________________________



\"Jin the Ice Master\" adds a new bow that opens up a completely new frost-based playstyle. Players who have the bow equipped will be endowed with new abilities that fuse the playstyles of destruction and archery.

Players with the bow equipped will be able to cast \"Ice Spike\" or \"Icy Spear\" at any time while the bow is equipped (Icy Spear will be cast if the player has it). This means that you can fire arrows, and cast Ice Spikes, at the same time. \"Eagle Eye\" will work for Ice Spike as it does with arrows. Ice Spikes cast this way will cost the correct amount of mana, and will level up your destruction skill when hitting a valid target.

Arrows fired from Jin\'s Bow of Frost have a chance to reset the cooldown on any frost-based shout you have equipped. Attacks against you while wielding Jin\'s Bow of Frost that bring you to very low health will grant you Ice Armor, a 50% reduction to damage and an Ice Cloak, for a few seconds. This ability has an internal cooldown.

Backstory

_______________________________

Jin the Ice Master was a dunmer huntsman who always had an affinity for magic. His deadly shot with a bow was matched only by his skill in destruction magic. Jin journeyed to the College of Winterhold to hone his skills in magic. He soon came to learn of the usefulness of frost-based magic as a complement to his archery, due to the slowing effects of frost based magic. Jin became so proficient in weaving in shots with his bow with his frost spells that eventually he was able to do them simultaneously, firing ice spells immediately followed with arrows, for an assault that his enemies could not withstand.

One day, Jin journeyed from the college to the frozen wastes of northern Skyrim, seeking the perfect place in seclusion to hone his skills, and he has not been seen since.

FAQ

_______________________________

Q: Where is the bow?
A: The bow is located in the far north of Skyrim, on a small island among the frozen ocean of the north. If you remember Septimus Signus\'s outpost,it is directly west of there, located in a small boat.

Q: How do I use Ice Spike / Icy Spear?
A: Holding down the [SPACEBAR] and [RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON] will cast the spell. Keeping them held will repeatedly cast the spell. You MUST know Ice Spike / Icy Spear to cast the spell from the bow.

Q: How does this work with zooming on the bow?
A: If you have an arrow drawn and press the [RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON], you will zoom. Pressing [SPACEBAR] after will cast the spell while you are zoomed and time is slowed. If you do not have an arrow drawn, and press [SPACEBAR] and [RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON], the spell will be cast and you can subsequently shoot the bow without zooming. Thus, it is possible to cast the spell and shoot the bow while zooming, or while not zooming.
