___ Flask of Heat don't work

THIS IS HAPPENING WHILE THE FLASK IS BEING USED WHILE UNDER THE AFFECTS OF SAID AILMENTS

Title.

They do not provide any immunity to freeze/chill upon use.

It is pretty much 100% reproducable and always happens. I have video of it happening if you don't believe me.

I will become frozen, use the flask, and then half a second later become chilled again, for example.

Grants Immunity to Chill for 4 seconds if used while Chilled
Grants Immunity to Freeze for 4 seconds if used while Frozen

Chill and Freeze are different ailments, when you use a flask while Frozen, you gain Freeze immunity, not Chill. To gain Chill immunity, use it while you're chilled.

Just in case, you can be Frozen while not being Chilled.

I would have to disagree that this is working as intended, simply because of the following:

When a target is frozen, it is also considered chilled. As the target becomes unfrozen, chill will remain on the target for an additional duration of 0.3 seconds.

Based on the above, using a flask with the Of Heat suffix should in fact provide you with both Freeze and Chill immunity when you use it while frozen. The issue is that, when you are frozen, you do not actually have the "Chilled" debuff applied to you at the same time, you are only "considered as chilled", which is a somewhat broken mechanic in my opinion. Or in other words, to get immunity to both Freeze and Chill, you would have to get both actual debuffs applied to you when frozen.

Based on the above...
I've already said beforehand - that's not true.

Things that don't freeze you with actual cold damage like freeze on activation strongboxes don't chill you.

upd. I recently watched an old poe video where arctic strongbox did also chill a character, looks like it used to be the case (freeze also applies chill) but was changed some time ago. At least wiki's information is just outdated, not though up.
