Awesome. This explains a lot. I guess moving around IS the way to prevent that debuff.. It was just glitchy which is why it didn't always work.
 
"An issue during the first boss battle in Snowcloak wherein the Frozen debuff would apply even when taking preventative measures during the action Snow Drift."

This always annoyed me. It's like there was no rhyme or reason for application of the debuff.

Some battles I avoided it every time, some I got hit every time. Figures it wasn't working as intended lol.
