'''Resist Frost''' increases the target's resistance to all forms of [[Skyrim:Frost Damage|Frost Damage]], including the secondary effects (such as [[Skyrim:Slow|Slow]]) it applies. Resist Frost 50% will halve any Frost Damage the target takes.

Similar to [[Skyrim:Resist Fire|Resist Fire]], [[Skyrim:Resist Shock|Resist Shock]], and [[Skyrim:Resist Magic|Resist Magic]], Resist Frost is capped at 85%. The cap only applies to you; [[Skyrim:Followers|followers]] and enemies with 100% resistance to a particular element (such as [[Skyrim:Daedra|atronachs]]) are truly immune.

Damage reduction from Resist Fire, Resist Frost, and Resist Shock is applied after damage reduction from Resist Magic is applied. For example, a 100-point Fire Damage spell would deal only 15 points of damage with Resist Magic 85%; Resist Fire 85% would then reduce the 15 points by a further 85% to 2.25 points of final damage, resulting in 97.75% total resistance.
