    Immune to cold, still cut/stunned by icebolt

    The Osyluth casts an ice bolt.
    You have been given a light cut.
    You have been stunned.
    I'm immune to cold. Is this intended behavior? (playing 3.2.0)

    Yes. Ice bolt is basically heavy, not so blunt object heading your way at high speed. Think icicle dropping from a roof of a tall building.

      You can prevent the bleeding with shard resistance and stunning with sound resistance but like Timo said, being immune to cold won't keep you from getting hurt when people hurl jagged chunks of ice at you.

        Note that in the nightlies this has changed: rshards still stops the bleeding, but rsound no longer stops the stunning. (There is a separate RES_STUN flag, but it doesn't appear on anything yet.)
