Frost Wraith ARAM Mayhem Augment Guide

Frost Specter: Basic attacks apply frost, slowing enemies and dealing additional magic damage. A utility damage rune for auto-attack champions.

Frost Ghost: Core effect: Basic attacks apply a frost effect, slowing enemies by 25% for 1.5 seconds. Additional damage: Each basic attack deals 10-30 bonus magic damage (scales with level). Stat bonus: Bonus damage receives 20% AP scaling. Stacking rule: Re-attacking refreshes the slow duration. Scope: Includes all basic attacks and empowered basic attacks.

All basic attacks (including enhanced attacks) Pet basic attacks Equipment on-hit effects

Skill damage True damage Healing and shield effects

Frost Ghost: Slow effects additively stack with other slows Bonus magic damage can trigger Sheen's critical strike effect Slow and bonus damage also work on minions and jungle monsters Bonus damage from empowered attacks also benefits from AP scaling

Frost Ghost: Auto-attack ADCs (Vayne, Jinx, Draven) High attack speed fighters (Master Yi, Tryndamere, Olaf) On-hit effect ADCs (Kai'Sa, Aphelios) Champions lacking crowd control

Frost Ghost: Pure AP mages (Ziggs, Vel'Koz, Brand) Pure tanks (Alistar, Leona, Ornn) Ability-based champions (Ziggs, Lux, Viktor)

Frost Ghost: Use the slow effect to kite enemies, preventing them from getting close Combine with attack speed items to increase trigger frequency Build AP to increase additional damage In team fights, prioritize slowing enemy carries to limit their damage and movement

Frost Wraith + Courage of the Colossus: Courage of the Colossus triggers a shield whenever Frost Wraith's root immobilizes enemies, providing survivability each time the automatic pulse activates. With a 6.5 second root cooldown and 5 second shield trigger cooldown, these effects sync consistently in ARAM's constant teamfights, making you significantly harder to kill while disrupting enemies. Frost Wraith + Guilty Pleasure: Guilty Pleasure heals you each time Frost Wraith's root immobilizes enemy champions. The automatic root pulse triggers this heal every 6.5 seconds, providing sustained healing during extended ARAM teamfights. This combination transforms Frost Wraith from pure utility into a source of reliable self-sustain. Frost Wraith + Adamant: Adamant grants bonus resistances each time Frost Wraith roots enemies, stacking up to 100 bonus armor and magic resistance. The automatic root pulse builds defensive stats throughout fights, making you progressively tankier. This synergy excels on frontline champions who stay in prolonged engagements. Frost Wraith + Tormentor: Tormentor applies a burn dealing percent max health damage when Frost Wraith roots enemies. The automatic root triggers this damage over time effect, adding meaningful damage output to an otherwise utility-focused augment. This converts crowd control into sustained damage pressure. Frost Wraith + Slap Around: Slap Around grants adaptive power permanently each time you immobilize enemies, with Frost Wraith's root triggering this infinitely stacking stat gain. The automatic pulse provides consistent stack accumulation throughout the match, scaling your damage significantly as the game progresses.

Avoid Frost Wraith + Jeweled Gauntlet: Frost Wraith's modified Ring of Frost explicitly states it does not deal damage, which means it cannot critically strike under any circumstances. Jeweled Gauntlet's primary value is enabling ability critical strikes, making this pairing completely wasted on the automatic root pulse with zero synergy. Avoid Frost Wraith + Vulnerability: Vulnerability allows damage over time and item damage to critically strike, but Frost Wraith's pulse deals no damage whatsoever. This creates a fundamental mechanical conflict where the critical strike chance and damage scaling from Vulnerability provide absolutely no benefit to the root effect. Avoid Frost Wraith + Magic Missile: Magic Missile triggers when dealing damage to an enemy champion with an ability, but Frost Wraith's modified Ring of Frost explicitly does not deal damage. This means the automatic root pulse will never trigger the Magic Missile effect, wasting a significant portion of the augment's potential value. Avoid Frost Wraith + Ice Cold: Frost Wraith applies a root effect, not a slow, so Ice Cold's additional slow reduction provides zero synergy with the automatic pulse. While not actively harmful, this pairing offers no mechanical interaction and wastes Ice Cold's potential on a crowd control effect that does not slow.

Frost Ghost: Don't assume skills can trigger the frost effect Don't ignore the AP scaling on additional magic damage Don't build too much AP, attack speed has higher value Pay attention to enemy QSS and Mercury, will remove slow effects
