|description = Warning: This is a Dangerous Mission! <br><br>Desna and her Recon Rangers are an elite team tasked with recovering intel from some of the most dangerous levels of the Clockworks. Joining them could lead to great rewards, but it is guaranteed to be a perilous journey!<br><br>Spiral HQ has detected a sudden climate shift emanating from deep within the Clockworks. Freak snowstorms and blizzards have begun surging through the depths seeming to originate from an inhospitable, fiendish city known as 'Amu-Sol.' The Recon Rangers have been dispatched to infiltrate Amu-Sol and discover the source of these freezing storms.

==Notes==
+
This mission was introduced with {{release|2012-08-01}}. It is the third Danger Mission released.
+
 
+
As with all danger missions, the party locks for the second combat floor and onward. Players will only have access to the arsenal station in the lobby and at the start of the first combat floor. Participants will only receive the prestige reward if they were present in the mission lobby.
+
 
+
[[Lost_Soul#Frozen Soul|Frozen Soul]]s spawn continuously in many areas of the mission if there are two members or fewer in the party.
+
 
+
Chilling Howlitzers are rarely replaced by normal Howlitzers in combat depths.
+
 
+
There are a few computers in this mission where you can read about how Devilites had planned to freeze the Clockworks with the support of Maulos. This involves contact with [[Morgral'm]].
+
 
+
===Strategy===
+
{{Note-LoadoutGuide}}
+
 
+
'''Recommended Equipment''':
+
 
+
The recommended armor set for this mission is a Piercing/Shadow hybrid. One popular choice is the Skolver/Snarbolax, considering they both give the corresponding defenses and freeze resistance. Any additional resistance from UVs, trinkets, or perks can potentially make you immune to the wisps and souls throughout the mission. Nearly all the monsters in this mission are weak to piercing. A defensive shield such as the Dread Skelly is highly recommended.
+
 
+
Suggested Weapons (make this list shiny with icons):
+
*Dark Briar Barrage
+
*Blitz Needle
+
*Callahan
+
*Final Flourish
