Dashing Strike vs Frozen...
#1
I was just fighting a Succubus Champion group with Frozen and made an interesting discovery.

I use Dashing Strike with Flying Side Kick for (a) looking cool, and (b) chasing down enemies that like to run about. As I was fighting these Succubi I made the unintentional discovery that you are immune to the Freezing effect while in transit. After discovering this, I tested several times with the same result. I would stand at one Succubus until the ice-balls were about to explode, then fly across to another. At both ends --- and in the middle --- of this attack I was in the area of effect for the freeze explosions, yet every time I found myself unharmed and able to move (the same as if I had Serenity active). I tested when there was only one Succubus left and was standing next to her, but it did not seem to work that time. It appears you need to actually be in the travel frames.

I do not believe this suddenly makes Monks over-powered, but it is an interesting property that allows a more aggressive approach against Frozen mobs (until Blizzard nerfs it).
May the wind pick up your heels and your sword strike true.
