What’s the difference between Ray of frost and speed?
Movement is a temporary currency, and something regained/lost per each turn, similar to HP. Speed is an inherent stat that should not generally change. Since Ray of Frost reduces Speed, and not Movement, it does not stack. In a way, it’s similar to trying to cast Aid vs. Cure Wounds. – Daniel Zastoupil Dec 27 ’19 at 17:37
