"See, THIS is why you need to take notes in chemistry class. Shuriken that stun enemies? That's worth a few all-night study sessions, isn't it?" In-game description

Freezing Throwing Stars are a throwing weapon in Dying Light. The blueprint is achieved upon unlocking the Elemental Throwing Stars skill
Overview[]
Freezing throwing stars like all other throwing stars possess a cheap cost, large quantity upon craft, and fast travel speed. They are typically best used on emergencies or single targets, this weapon leaning more towards the former. These particular throwing stars will always freeze almost any enemy it hits, meaning that the player can pull this out if they need breathing room in tense situations. When using this against Virals, it is best to combine it with Backlash as Virals tend to dodge less while chasing.
Otherwise, this weapon still possesses the weaknesses of any throwing star, being confined to single targets while some enemies are able to dodge it. Bombers will still explode upon being hit, likely due to the fact that these throwing stars still deal damage upon contact. Volatiles will only be frozen for very short amount of time, making this weapon less effective against them.
