Frostbite on hit curse on gloves - how?

Hi, guys,

The frostbite on hit curse on gloves isn't something I can craft somehow I take it?

How do you get such item?

Thanks!

That only comes on synthesised items. You can get synth uniques with it, synth rares can drop in Heist, and there's a T4 Harvest to add synth to an item. Not possible to target the synth mods you want in any case though.

You can get Frostbite on Hit on gloves as either a Corrupted Implicit or a Synthesis Implicit.

If you want some as a base and continue crafting on them you can buy Synthesized ones.

Can't get it through corruption.

Oh wow... I was wasting my time in delve then.

Question: How do I get it via synthesis? Putting the organs in Thane's lab, or just killing metamorphs in maps?
Never really understood the synthesis mechanic tbh :(

Thanks for the help!

Synthesis is unrelated to Metamorphs/Tane's Laboratory. Synthesis was originally removed from the game for being too powerful, but they reintroduced it in small ways:

• Synthesis Maps are random drops from T14+ (maybe T11+?) Map Bosses, and I believe the bosses can occasionally drop Synthesised items. Zana will occasionally offer Synthesis Maps in her shop or as T14+ (T11+?) Master missions as well.
• Orders of magnitude more reliable than Synthesis Maps is running Harvests and hoping to run into one of the Harvest bosses that grant the "synthesise an item" horticraft. However, this is still incredibly rare, even with all your resources allocated to rare Harvests and constantly chaining Harvests. You are also highly likely to get a junk implicit rather than Frostbite on Hit.
• Orders of magnitude more reliable than Harvest Synthesis horticrafts is simply buying a base that already has the Frostbite on Hit implicit and crafting on top of that.

Note that even the fastest and cheapest option (buying a base that already has the synthesised implicit) is also extremely rare/expensive for the average player. I just now ran a search for it:

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ultimatum/884J6nUV

And saw 2 listings in total. One of the unique gloves for 4 ex (which you obviously can't craft) and one AFK seller who's selling a Rare base for 6 ex.

I'd highly recommend not building around Frostbite curse on hit being on your gloves if you are a new player. The cheapest, most new-player-friendly options would be casting Frostbite yourself, using Blasphemy Support to turn Frostbite into an aura, or using Hextouch Support (formerly known as Curse on Hit Support, so old builds will use that phrase) to link to a utility skill such as Orb of Storms in order to apply the Curse that way.

Otherwise, if you're dead set on getting Frostbite on Hit in your gear in some form, I'd highly recommend getting a ring with Redeemer influence on it with at least item level 75 (item level 80 for the better Frostbite mod to possibly roll), and then spam "Caster" crafts in Harvest until you get Frostbite on Hit on the ring.

Wow TIL! I had it all mixed up.

Thanks a lot for all the info, I really appreciate you took your time to explain it so clearly. :)

No problem, and I just saw you're at 32/40 so hopefully it didn't feel like I was talking down to you with that "new player" stuff haha whoops. I suppose that would possibly put buying the base back on the table for you, if you can catch someone that's online and selling the base for a reasonable price (maybe the 6 ex guy will come back from AFK if you message him! Once in a while, people who are in AFK status can respond, like if they were eating food and can alt-tab back to trade)

Hah, not at all! Really appreciate the help! :)

Synthesis base is the worst choice as stated, regarding price and accessibility.

You got 2 reasonable options:

ele weakness corruption on gloves - ofc you lose the frostbite gimmics but res reduction is there

frostbite on hit ring - either delve or redemeer - preferably
