Hi.
As a new ele I was wondering if there is a thump rule to know where is worthy to use icebow.
Guess against structures and bosses with big hitboxes… But how do I know the size ofbthe hit box?
Ty!

Learning English, any correction is very welcome.

The size of the red circle under a target indicates how big their hitbox is.

Like lindbur said, the circle determines the hitbox, but keep in mind each projectile from your frost bow has an independant hitbox too, which means they can be a few units off. I think the total hitbox is around 60/90, though i’m not sure. Which means the projectiles can move away 30/45 units from your targets.

In general, frost bow is a really solid utility that does large amounts of damage even on small mobs. Remember to fire the Frost Fan (#3) at point blank range to inflict decent damage and a large amount of chill. This really helps disposing of that pesky mob.
