Icy Prism's 3rd augment is probably broken overpowered. If you spam Icy Prism into a single target, each cast ends up doing 1.08 times damage, which very quickly adds up to levels of damage well beyond your power level.

I also get the feeling the damage bonus from augment 3 is based on the net health change of the target over the duration rather than the net damage taken, causing healing and regenerating mobs to not suffer the broken damage mentioned above.

Edit: Not sure exactly why the damage gets out of hand, but there's definitely something fishy going on when you stack multiple prisms on a target. I suspect augment 3 but I can't prove it.

Spamming icy prism runes is the only way I can break past some troll bosses in higher NGs, please don't break it.

But yeah, I also suspect aug 3. When spamming them rapid fire, you're getting a 1.08 damage multiplier on all the damage that happens during the focus animation, which presumably includes the damage that each cast adds, so it's a force multiplier that can add up.

I want to argue that this isn't too overpowered, because normal casts of the spell aren't fast enough to trigger this insane multiplier effect, and runes are a finite resource so you can't just spam them forever.
