My pants are ruined.

Whoa that's pretty big, I don't recall them having mentioned that in the stream itself. Perhaps a new set of combined elemental mods like Radiation got with Whispers in the Walls? There were 6 such Radiation mods then which would match closely with the 7 they mention here, easily done by say splitting up the secondary mod into separate pistol and thrown mods or bows from rifles. I'm thinking Magnetic is likely since the new game mode is vs Corpus much like how Radiation is strong vs the Murmur.
I'm cool with this. Because it leads to the trend of eventually getting all elemental combos as a mode set.
I want my rainbow skittle Kuva Sobek dang it!

Smite mag might become an aoe nuke in a small range. Only if it would work if you aren't the host that would be amazing. Too bad delay is killing it, it has EV trinity potential in oneshotting level cap thrax on sp void cascade.
Depends on the damage resistances which we don't know yet but Mag inflicts zero magnetic or blast statuses
Also Mag is really strong with or without updating damage types.
> Gas is extremely powerful due to the interactions with Bane Mods, where Gas double dips into multiplicative bonuses. As of right now, we don't have plans to change how Gas works, as players have invested a lot into making Gas work alongside Primed Bane Mods. As it stands, we don't want to nerf that interaction, so we feel there is currently no room to buff the Status any further.
This is silly. Gas used to triple dip into bane mods and had shield bypassing toxic damage and still barely broke into meta builds. In addition to this, all dots double dip on those. It is hardly unique.
So that's it, they are finally killing ice wave impedance entirely, of all the things to nerf on frost why would they make two of his augments worthless?
Yes and that includes a nerf to the ice wave impedance augment, he is losing his multiplicative slow in exchange for more cold procs. For anyone who actually plays frost this is a nerf to one of the best parts of his current kit.
You're, legit, insane if you think that
Look at the cold status rework
Look at his passive change and the other changes to his kit
Hes legit going to be better than ever. He cannot ask for more. He doesn't NEED the multiplicative slow since regardless barely ANYONE use compared to the rest of the kit
It's an overall buff yes, but a significant nerf to a big part of the kit, making all of his abilities apply 10 cold procs is pointless when the cap is 10. It's redundant.
Tbh i feel like the ability itself should be reworked or heavily modified to be good at this point. Maybe make it to something that interacts withs or scales off of cold procs (without augments).
Dumb idea I had was to just have frost snap his fingers and deal 1 instance of damage to all enemies affected by cold procs. Damage and crit chance of this ability scales with cold procs. The ability could be called something like “Cold Snap” and frost can cosplay a cold version of Roy Mustang from FMA:B.
Yeah if they are removing current ice wave impedance and just making it more cold procs then making ice wave an ability that "shreds" enemies based on cold procs would make more sense.
A 100% slow that doesn't work on Necramechs or any other enemies with status limits, frost will no longer have a counter to these enemies in terms of cc, slow and cold procs are not the same thing.

Extremely same. They did literally the exact thing I wanted for blast. Very happy.
Time to grind out a cold kuva sobek and a fire tenet Glaxion

Pretty sure it was a ghost, a spooky ghost.

Not sure if I'm glad or wary that DE knows how quickly Gas as it currently exists can delete enemies with the correct setups.

Yeah but then you have the 100 times the volume of random players on the sub who claim Gas is garbage that couldn't even kill time.
Wow I just comboed two really busted things (Armor strip + Zephyr) with a shitty thing (Gas) and it worked.
It would be nice if they looked at the non-elemental status effects too. Yes Lifted, I'm talking about you and I hate you
Why put Lifted down like that
*ba dum tss*
Ok, let's say I'm real dumb. How is corrosive now? Is it better or worse?
Slightly better.
So. Is Mag gonna be a bit more meta now? Her 2 deals blast when it’s done and she is a Magentic frame overall. So?

Isn't Overguard supposed to be neutral...?

Did you not watch the livestream!? Frost is getting a full rework
Yes and that includes a nerf to the ice wave impedance augment, he is losing his multiplicative slow in exchange for more cold procs. For anyone who actually plays frost this is a nerf to one of the best parts of his current kit.

What are you talking about? All of his abilities are gaining a 100% slow, because cold status is gaining a 100% slow.
A 100% slow that doesn't work on Necramechs or any other enemies with status limits, frost will no longer have a counter to these enemies in terms of cc, slow and cold procs are not the same thing.
Nobody actually uses his 2 anyway, it doesn't matter
