A winsome smile, genial words, and the merciless hoarfrost that lies beneath... These are all Kaeya's weapons.
Glacial Waltz is Kaeya's Elemental Burst.
Gameplay Notes[]
- This Elemental Burst drains energy later than most others.[1]
- Once an icicle deals DMG, it has a 0.5s cooldown before being able to deal DMG to the same target again.
- It can deal DMG more than once per rotation if its hitbox remains in contact with an enemy for more than 0.5s.
- Glacial Waltz can hit ~15 times across the initial burst, icicle rotations and final icicle explosions.
- Icicle damage will snapshot Kaeya's stats on cast and will not be affected by changes in his stats that occur afterwards.
- Constellation Effects
- Constellation Level 2,

- Constellation Level 6,
