"dark presence", "essence of darknes" or something similar.
not fitting the water theme...
a legendary item/potion
(whatever looks more fitting balancewise)
#effect:
a tower consuming/equiping it has abilty of GIB
the same way GIB acts (messerschmidts reaver, helm of hades, etc...)
aditionaly it gets an aura of 1 range (fixed), aplying his skill with 5 stacks (like a gib on lvl 66,6 :)
#creation:
-a gib wearing 5 heart may be sacrificed, also assisting gibs.
- in his range, 6 gibs, each needs to have 5 (its own, +5aditional) frozen heart equiped, nothing else. only the 5 hearts.
-this situation needs to be maintained 666 seconds
-the main gib needs to kill a boss or a challenge to proc it.
#lore: (for sure there are better descripions, maybe someone may contribute)
the deamons gave their soul to summon the master, everyone wearing/equiping it, feels the unnutural presence, also who pass by...
#game impact:
quite usefull, if utilized well, but nothing you could acheive early. collecting 42 frozen hearts eg take its time. probably not to happen in most of the games.
so it gets truly legendary...
#skin:
something like a cold burning pentagram would be nice. as example
So frozen items have a new quest to sacrifice several gibs for a new item that has gib's effect? This would be neat.
Maybe Andy can find a way to make it slightly more achievable so it is used in more games. As you said, this is a fairly difficult accomplishment.
I'm thinking about "how much player fun" versus "how much Andy effort"
