Playstyle

Snow Globe on the objective with Chilling Globe freezes. Avalanche refreshes Overguard and strip outside the bubble.

Passive abilities

Melee hits and freeze procs chill the room. Avalanche freezes and strips armor (aim ~167%+ Strength for full strip). Icy Avalanche converts hits into squad Overguard.

Active abilities

  • 1 Freeze — Single-target freeze / Freeze Force hold buff. Often flexed.
  • 2 Ice Wave — Cold wave. Common Helminth slot (Parasitic Armor / Roar / Airburst).
  • 3 Snow Globe — Absorbing ice bubble. Chilling Globe freezes entrants. Recast to implode.
  • 4 Avalanche — AoE freeze + armor strip. Icy Avalanche grants affinity-range Overguard per enemy.
  • Augment: Chilling Globe on Snow Globe. Icy Avalanche still recommended.

Mod breakdown

Strength / Armor

Globe health scales with armor and Strength; Avalanche still wants strip Strength.

Aura / Exilus

Archon shards

  • Armor / Strength
  • Casting Speed
  • Duration

Helminth

Keep Snow Globe + Avalanche. Parasitic Armor over Ice Wave fattens Globe and Overguard.

Mission Usefulness

  • Steel Path Survival / Defense / Disruption

    Excellent

    Snow Globe + Chilling Globe holds SP defense tiles while Avalanche refreshes Overguard.

  • Mobile Defense / Excavation

    Excellent

    Globe the objective — Frost's classic job.

  • Exterminate / Capture Speed Runs

    Situational

    Globe is slow for pure exterminates.

  • Spy / Rescue / Nightmare

    Weak

    Not stealth.

  • Open World / Bounties

    Strong

    Defense / excavation bounty stages.

  • Long-Range Gunplay / Eidolon-Style Content

    Weak

    Stationary globe, not Amp hunting.
