Revised idea: Verglas skills replace the %stat scaling used in fist weapons with 100% of the corresponding tree's stat (Hare uses Cel, Bear uses Str, Fox uses Will). This means damage will be calculated as follows:
Scaled Weapon ATK = (100% Cel/Will/Str *1.5) + (Power + Upgrades).
From this new value, skills will scale in the same manner as they are currently implemented.

Notes and reasoning:
- Cold front had a marginal damage reduction on account of the much higher scaling on ice point impacts.
- Axe kick had a marginal damage decrease because of the knockdown it can provide.
- Rapid kick had a moderate damage increase because it has no excess effects (Still useful against cobra, useless against matador, etc).
- All Fox skills changed to scale slightly more with primary stat (Will) rather than Ice Attack (Skill), to keep primary stat importance roughly the same as its Hare and Bear counterparts. The expected difference between Ice Attack and Scaled Weapon ATK was found to be roughly 1:2, so if this is correct the damage on Crawling Spikes and Expanding Ice should be roughly the same as they are currently.
- Icicle Spear had a sizable damage increase because it requires a large amount of momentum to setup and sacrifices a powerful buff (Bringing it to the highest scaling attack for Fox Verglas, like on live).
- FP costs reduced for Fox skills to an even 25% upward scaling from Hare because they were borderline absurd. Hare = 1.25x fp costs of Bear, Fox = 1.25x fp costs of Hare. Recommend an FP reduction tied to Chimera style'd skills in some way, shape, or form.
