Ice Staff

Summary
It's a club that was once held by the mythical Yeti before its eventual death. Used to be obtained through a Yeti Chest or you could of bought it from the Event Store for 1,499 Tickets.

Background Story
Ice collected from the newly evolved Yeti's cave was imbued with some sort of strange power - one beyond our comprehension. Its particles were firmly trapped in place, making liquefaction almost impossible. (The ice was so cold. Very cold. The ice barely melts.) In fact, it was so cold, that it was found to freeze zombies on impact due to their much lower body temperature compared to a normal survivor.

Heavenly Day seized the opportunity, extracted hundreds of tons of ice, and began to mass-produce what many consider to be a rarity (an actual useful product from their company) - the Ice Staff.

Pay 100 more Tickets and get some included mittens.

Tips

 * Freezing a zombie such as the Ticker disables its ability to spin via first person, allowing you to kill it without any sudden backfire.
 * Use an item that supplies infinite stamina like the Candy Cane to escape swarms.
 * Consider wearing the Tactical II to help you due to the high energy consumption for this weapon.
 * You can freeze a Brute with this.
 * This can counteract its forcefield for a short period of time.
 * This doesn't freeze Elementals.
 * The Ice Staff is recommended in Melee Smash, due to its length and its freezing effect.
 * Make sure to utilize Double Equip to bring a more damaging melee weapon, however.
 * The freeze effect lasts longer than a trip effect, so don't be afraid to fight somebody with a tripping melee.
 * This weapon does not freeze golumns.
 * Using items and weapons with fire damage such as the Flamethrower and Molotov on a frozen player can thaw the frozen effect.
 * This item is useful in Rapid Infection to freeze zombies.
 * But this can also backfire due to the fact you don't have Immunity.

Trivia

 * This is similar to the Ice Hammer from R2D 2014, in terms of usage.
 * Uses the highest stamina out of all melee weapons.
 * First weapon to have the ability to inflict freeze.
 * Third melee to afflict a status effect that isn't trip, push, or stun.
 * Second to afflict a status effect without an attachment.
 * Second event item that cost 1,499 Tickets and the second item that can be found in a chest, first being the Torch.
 * It used to cost 1,500 Tickets before the price was reduced by 1.
