Sureshrill Frost

Sureshrill Frost is a unique Flanged Mace in Diablo 2 Resurrected that delivers massive cold damage along with freeze capabilities. This exceptional weapon provides melee characters with crowd control and the crucial Cannot Be Frozen modifier during Nightmare difficulty.

Cold Damage Focus

Sureshrill Frost offers +150-180% Enhanced Damage combined with Adds 63-112 Cold Damage over 5 seconds, creating substantial freeze duration. The weapon's Freezes Target property provides excellent crowd control, shattering frozen enemies and preventing melee monsters from reaching you. Additional +50% Damage to Undead makes it effective in Act 5's undead-heavy areas.

Cannot Be Frozen Advantage

The standout feature is Cannot Be Frozen, a highly sought-after modifier that prevents cold attacks from chilling your character. This becomes critical in Nightmare and Hell difficulties when facing Cold Enchanted packs or Act 5 enemies. The weapon also provides Level 9 Frozen Orb (50 Charges), giving melee characters an emergency AoE spell for dealing with swarms.

Practical Use Window

Sureshrill Frost serves well from levels 39-55, particularly for Paladins, Barbarians, and Act 5 mercenaries. The freeze effect helps control dangerous packs while you focus on priority targets. By late Nightmare or early Hell, you'll want weapons with better damage scaling, though some players keep it as a swap weapon specifically for the Cannot Be Frozen modifier if they lack Raven Frost or other sources of this property.
