The Antarctic Wind appears as a throwing weapon dropped from Suzaku, with a special use: if it's thrown at Genbu, it disables his additional water damage on melee attacks, making it easier on the tank. The Arctic Wind serves an inverse function.
The Antarctic Wind appears as loot that can be acquired from Feral Croc and Gavial. Two may be sold to unlock the Permafrost Bow & Quiver at the Bazaar.
