Little late this week but we are back with another cool Warframe
This is Frost, colder and deadlier than space itself. Frost can protect or punish, the decision is yours.
1st ability-Freeze A blast of cold energy that can freeze the target
2nd ability-Ice Wave Send out a wave of frozen ice dealing heavy damage and inflicting cold upon enemies
3rd ability-Snow Globe Create an icy barrier to stop incoming projectiles, great for defending objectives
4th ability-Avalanche Summon a landslide of ice to freeze and shatter all enemies in its radius
Passive Enemies hitting Frost with a melee attack have a 10% chance to get frozen for 20 seconds
Progenitor-Cold
Subsumed Ability-Ice Wave
Tactical Ability-Snow Globe
Frost can be found by defeating Captain Vor and Lech Kril on Exta, Ceres with the main blueprint on the Market
Frost was introduced 1/29/2013 in update 6.0. His design was based on an unused boss from DE’s previous game, Dark Sector
Frost Prime was introduced in update 7.10 in 5/3/2013. Frost prime is tied with Hydroid Prime for the fourth highest possible shields at 3,195
Frost is the second Warframe that received a prime version, and the first one that is craftable.
I really like Frost (Honestly I’m a big fan of all the elemental based frames)
He excels at defending objectives with his abilities, and with the introduction of his new mod for Ice Wave, Icy Avalanche, he can protect his allies with plenty of overguard
Is there any way to get Archon Flow work for him in high level play? I tried with Ice Wave and currently Thermal Sunder (heat then cold to try to kill with both blast and cold dmg at the same time), both of the abilities didn’t seem to be damaging enough to kill, even after Icy Avalanche. My build is currently sitting at 243% strength. Any thoughts?
Avalanche has quadratic scaling off enemy count, so the standard Nukealanche strat is to abuse a grouping ability like Ensnare or Coil Horizon. I’d probably also ditch Chilling Globe for Augur Reach.
Interesting, is the quadratic scaling on the initial cast or is it on the shatter?
On the shatter, but if you have some source of viral priming like a Panzer, Cyanex, or Glaxion and turbo stack your Strength with Growing Power, Madurai and Molt Augmented, you can get really strong initial casts, and the shatter will do more damage than the initial cast as soon as four enemies explode.
Cool! Thanks, I’ll try it out, I probably won’t be aiming for kills by the initial cast though, by the time I do the Contamination Waves half of the map is usually already dead
