Frost

TBH I didn't have much fun when I first got him. He looks like a badass, but his only good skills IMO are his 3rd and 4th. The other two skills are only useful in some situations.

But he looks like a gentlemanly badass so it is worth it.

I play him for snowglobe (and also for his handsomeness).

only a few frames have more than 1 useful skill end game... He's one of the better frames. High base shields and high base armor plus decent health. Dont' forget to bring zorens though... lol.

 

virtually impossible to die in a frost... if you know what you are doing so...

 

yes he's still worth it.

 

Frost prime. :))

He's got the same health/shield/armor profile that Rhino does, although he's also as slow.  His helmet choices are decent (either boosted shields or boosted power).  Overall, he's a tank with good crowd control abilities as opposed to personal protection.  He can take a pounding & dish it out, and he's an asset on defense missions.  I'd hardly call him useless, as you will find him valuable in any number of situations.  Since he's one of the older frames, he's due some attention.

 

Everyone's not happy with Freeze, which is admittedly a piece of junk that does not deliver any utility.  I'm sure that ability will be changed sooner or later.

 

His other three powers are fairly decent overall.  The big issue with Ice Wave & Avalanche is the same problem all the other frames have with direct damage abilities:  ability damage does not scale proportionally with enemy level, regardless of how much time or effort you put into him.  It needs to be understood that this isn't a problem with Frost but a problem with the current warframe ability development system, which needs some attention.

Many people argue that frost is fine as he is and if anything slowglobe needs a nerf but I don't think that anyonw who argues this ever used frost. Snowglobe is basically frosts best and only move. I don't understand why warframes such as ember get a buff when frost remains the same. Sure ember has some bad moves but ember has 2 good moves to rely on while frost has 1.

As cruddy as his first skill is at times, that freeze shot came in handy a few times with the last event, froze that scout just as he was making it to the airlock.  It bought me just enough time to catch up with him before he locked the airlock door.

 

Snowglobe is awesome, and the AOE of snowballs works quite well in a pinch.  I haven't used ice wave all too much to say anything good or bad about it.

I started the game with Volt but after maxing him out I went to Frost. Yes, I've become the shield generator in defense missions but I'm always the last one alive and the one to revive everyone. As for damage I really enjoy avalanche. Even if I don't kill all the enemies I can give my teammates a break by freezing everyone for a few seconds.

 

Freeze - Yes, agreed for almost completely useless.

 

Ice Wave - I LOVE this move, and the animation for it is really cool and well done, but once again, the damage is miniscule at high level and the travel time is excruciatingly slow. 

 

If you want to be the badass in the trench coat then by all means, pick him up.
