I learned a couple of things
1. That you will lose your grafted/marais buffs if you die.
2. that even with the mountain favor, all four frost resist buffs from the bosses and 6 bolus buffs you can still get frozen
3. you can sometimes lose control over your character (no surge sprint or heal) if you eat a bolus on the ground with nothing else in your pouches
2/10 experience from the bullshit frost alone
