The Snowfall is an operation mechanic[note 1] in Arknights, introduced in Break the Ice.
Overview[]
The mountains of Kjerag are known to have a low temperature, especially when it starts snowing. On operations with Snowfall, all friendly and enemy units present will intermittently be inflicted with Cold while the Snowfall is active; the Cold is applied every 10 seconds, but its active window (default 1 second) and the Cold duration (default 5 seconds) may change in certain operations.
In certain operations, the Snowfall is a Penetrating Cold variant which also blows away enemies toward a certain direction with varying force level depending on the operation.
When a Snowfall is active, the edges of the screen appear to be frozen and snowflakes will drift about; a noticeable blizzard effect will cover the screen when the Cold is about to be inflicted, accompanied by a gust of wind for the Penetrating Cold variant.
Appearances[]
Snowfall is featured in all BI operations except BI-EX-6 with Penetrating Cold ones featured in BI-5, BI-6, BI-EX-2 to BI-EX-5, and BI-TR-2, as well as:
