1: The chance to drop ice scream
2: The 100% HP recovery. Does it Sack linearly or exponentially... or not at all?

2) Linearly.

I consider the loss of accessory slots to be a deal breaker. I'd consider just the loss of aumdura benefit enough to be a dealbreaker, let alone the possibility of megs, or the potential need for phen, etc. Oh, or the 20% from non-neutral from KBC's.... etcetera.
Since i've got access to megs, i wouldn't consider the snowier set even if they made icecreams heal to full hp - Who cares about saving a few mil zeny on pots if the cost is losing half your damage, probably slowing your exp/hr by 20-50%?!

What are megs? Then wats the reason behind snowier cards for selling so much? And people say you don't freeze once ur INT is more than 100 right?
shh some people are stuck in the past and forget that!
Megs is short for Megingjard. Op is being silly acting like everyone has access to one after so many were broken with server merges.

Some simple math will make it clear that Snowier cards have a ridiculously long payback period. On Valk, set is ~50m, on Ymir, ~25m. That's _a lot_ of potions any way you slice it - particularly when you consider the loss of the accessories.

I'm not really sure why people go crazy for snowier cards either - the point is of course to save money on healing items (that's the only benefit) - at a cost of both accessory slots and random freezing if you don't have 100 int (which not all classes will get). They will often entirely provide for healing needs.

Its pretty much what DrAzzy is saying. You can offset leveling cost for pots against damage you do against the monsters your leveling against. I currently use a double malicious carga over a double kingbird carga to try to save money for pots. I thought about doing the snowier cards but it seems like it would just slow down the leveling even more to spend time picking up the ice cream. Not to mention the loss of the accessories. The game gives people the option to level cheap/slow or fast/expensive. You just have to balance out what you want and go with it.
