The Arctic Wind appears as a throwing weapon dropped from Genbu, with a special use: if it's thrown at Suzaku, it disables his additional fire damage on melee attacks, making it easier on the tank. The Antarctic Wind serves an inverse function.
The Arctic Wind appears as loot that can be acquired from Yeti and as a reward for hunting the Catoblepas. One may be sold toward unlocking the Feathered Boots at the Bazaar. The Arctic Wind may be sold for 1179 gil.
