Acquisition

• This mod can be acquired by attaining the rank of General under Steel Meridian, the rank of Genius under Cephalon Suda, or the rank of Tempest in Conclave, and spending 25,000 Standing 25,000 to purchase.

Notes

• Cold Status per second is not affected by mods.
• Trail duration is affected by  Ability Duration.
• Multiple frozen trails can be active at once, limited only by the duration of each trail.
• Allied players are unaffected by the trail.
• Nullifier Crewman will destroy any cold area that their bubbles touch.

Tips

• Works extremely well against melee-focused enemies such as most Infested, slowing entire mobs of enemies and making it easier to kill them.
  • Infested can be even further slowed by the player and squad members equipping  Infested Impedance.
  • This augment synergizes very well with  Loki's  Radial Disarm, forcing enemy units to use melee attacks and thus become more susceptible to the augment's effects.

Trivia

• Once cast, the effects of the frozen trail created by this Augment mod operates in a similar fashion to the Cryo Floors in Orokin Void missions.
• Along with  Afterburn,  Iron Shrapnel, and  Mesa's Waltz, this mod is one of the few Augments usable in Conclave.
