Notes
- Frost Prime, compared to Frost:
- Higher Shields (550/650 vs. 455/555)
- Additional Polarity ( vs. )
- As with any other Prime Warframe, moving close to the location of an Orokin Void Death Orb will restore a pulse of 250 Energy to nearby allies, even if that Death Orb is inactive, destroyed, or non-present. This effect can only occur once per orb.
- Frost Prime's Ice Wave leaves behind small, golden icicles in its wake.
