Freeze

• Frost launches an icy projectile that inflicts 150 / 225 / 275 / 350 Cold damage on impact and 50 / 100 / 125 / 150 Cold damage with a 100% status chance in an area. Enemies directly hit by the projectile will be frozen for a duration of 5 / 7 / 12 / 15 seconds. If the projectile impacts a surface, a patch of ice will be created that lasts 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 seconds and slows enemies as they enter its area of effect.
  • All damage is affected by Ability Strength and body-part multipliers.
  • Area damage affects the initial target, decreases with distance, and does not bypass obstacles in the environment.
  • Freeze duration and ice duration are affected by Ability Duration.
  • The freeze duration will end prematurely if the initial target loses 50% of its current health during the time its frozen.
• While frozen, enemies are unable to regenerate Shields.
• Ability Synergy: Casting Freeze onto the exterior of a Snow Globe will destroy it, triggering an icy explosion that damages and ragdolls enemies in an area of effect.
• Casting Avalanche on a target frozen by Freeze will override Freeze's effects. The target will remain frozen for Avalanche's duration while temporarily reducing the target's armor and removing Freeze's health threshold.
• Freeze is a one-handed action. As such, it can be used while performing various maneuvers and actions without interruption.
• Can be recast on a frozen target multiple times, restarting the freeze timer.
• Has a cast delay of ~0.6 seconds.

Freeze Force is a Warframe Augment Mod for Frost that allows Freeze to be held on cast, creating a wave of energy traveling outward from the user that temporarily grants the caster and nearby allies additional Cold damage to all attacks.

Rank	Cold Damage	Duration	Range	Cost
0	50%	28s	15m	6
1	65%	32s	15m	7
2	80%	36s	15m	8
3	100%	40s	15m	9

• Its primary strength is that a direct hit causes the target to be frozen in place for a fixed 10 seconds, regardless of rank. This is particularly useful when fighting single enemies such as bosses to buy time for teammates to revive incapacitated Tenno, recharge shields, reload, etc.
• Targets that are frozen will be freed of their immobility if they take health damage by anything. Freeze's utility can be easily wasted unless proper coordination with teammates is exercised.
• Freeze can be used to set up an effective kill-combo on an enemy with a burst-damage attack.
• Arbitration Shield Drones won't dispel the freeze effect from frozen enemies.
• Placing a Slash proc on enemies and then casting freeze can stop an enemy from killing you while slowly killing them via bleed damage.
