Template:For Template:Infobox enchantment Frost Walker is an Minecraft:enchantment applied to Minecraft:boots that turns water into Minecraft:frosted ice beneath the user's feet, and provides immunity to Minecraft:campfire and Minecraft:magma block damage.

Obtaining

Frost Walker is a Minecraft:treasure enchantment and can only be obtained from jungle temple and stronghold Minecraft:chest loot, Minecraft:fishing, Minecraft:raid drops,Template:Only or Minecraft:trading with a librarian of any level.

Usage

Boots enchanted with Frost Walker transform any source Minecraft:water block into Minecraft:frosted ice if:

the entity wearing the boots is:
- putting the boots on,
- joining the world,
- falling onto the ground,
- or moving on the ground,
and the water:
- is on the same height as the block the wearer is on.
- is within a circleTemplate:Only or squareTemplate:Only with a radius of <math>\min\left(2+level,28\right)</math> around the block the wearer is on.
- and has Minecraft:air above it.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Continuous motion is required for frosted ice to remain when light levels would otherwise cause it to melt. When an entity stops walking on the Minecraft:frosted ice created by the enchantment, it gradually melts. In addition, the frosted ice created from Frost Walker lasts longer during the night because there is no sunlight to melt it.

Frost Walker also eliminates all damage from Minecraft:magma blocks and Minecraft:campfires, but not Minecraft:lava. This includes Minecraft:sulfur cubes with the "Hot" archetype. The boots do not take Minecraft:durability damage from standing on these blocks.

Frost Walker also works when on boots equipped by Minecraft:armor stands<ref>Template:Bug</ref> and boots held by Minecraft:foxes Template:Only.

Incompatibilities

The Frost Walker and Minecraft:Depth Strider enchantments are mutually exclusive, meaning only one can be added to any given item in Survival. When added through use of Minecraft:commands, both enchantments function as normal.

-Continuous motion is required for ice to remain when light levels would otherwise cause it to melt. When a [[Minecraft:player]] stops walking on the [[Minecraft:ice]] created by the enchantment, the ice gradually melts from around and under the player (at which point the player falls into the water). In addition, the ice created from Frost Walker lasts longer during the night because there is no sunlight to melt it.
