    Remove the one shot breaking. The only issue with frost was its pretty absurd glue and that was nerfed along with the combo damage and projectile speed. And that’s exactly what makes the combo trash, it’s way too unreliable and depending on luck.
    Besides, many fixers have bolts to remove frost now

    Maybe for frost launcher okay but frost bolt has very low cooldown. There will be many op frost torp speeders again just like in the past. I will be honest i don't find frost blaster weak. Perhaps you can't use it with full potential but still it has very low cooldown, you can regularly frosted enemies. It is doing his job not bad as a supportive item.

    I hate being frosted as a speeder, but yeah, before the nerf it was definately OPAF. I found myself glued down even with 1.6 speed, and spammed with torps with no way to break the ice.

    Now it's weaker than all hell tho

    Maybe frost can decrease some turret rotation. That will be better.

    Be cool if it did. And I think, since it's now oneshot break anyway, we should have frost talents for cannons as well

    I do, it's rather easy actually.

    Leave the mechanism as it used to be, nobody was complaining about that.

    People complained about being a sitting duck and not being able to dodge the coming torpedo. I say make the effect let's say 30% weaker. So people will have bigger chance to dodge it.

    PS: nobody was complaining about it before they fixed the talents, because it was weaker. So make its strength the same as it used to be before the talent fix.

    PS2: dunno who's decision was to make it work like tesla bolt, but it's absolutely nonsensical, and should be fired.

    PS3: I've never used the combo. Had good amount of epic frost launchers, that I scrapped.

    PS4: I thought I'm editing my comment, not replying to that :D:D:D

    I don’t find frost blasters weak because i never see them. Low cooldown does nothing because you can’t hit enemies with the bonus. It only means that you can shoot more frosts just to see your teammates hit your target removing the frost.

    But no, it’s pretty balanced

    Since this thread is going off-topic into a discussion about frost, I might I as well help imove it farther away from the topic of Double Bubblers.
    I actually use a frost blaster as part of my main setup on mk5 speeder. I've been running a T1 rare, and it's doing very well in helping get more consistent landings in 1v1s. I don't believe frost needs a buff, and I know cause I actually use it.

    The only scenario in which frost can be called good, because there’s nobody breaking your frost. In order to get the combo to hit, you need to either
    1) Get lucky
    2) Be in a situation where nobody breaks frost (1 vs 1 or going solosuicide).
    I had one good game with frost after the update. They had a fixer that had to run, and i managed to get to him without his team killing me. I landed 2-3 frost torps and we won. I did 12000 damage. Sounds pretty good?

    Exept that was 1 game out of ~15 played, and i basically did nothing in the other ones. When i tried to get closer, i was killed quickly.

    It can be called situational combo, or high risk high reward combo, but that’s just sugarcoating the fact that it is unviable for a team game and depends entirely on luck.

    It'd be cool if we could unlock hit resistance on Isak's training tree. I think one or two extra shots would make frost better but not overpower.

    Make frost break on mortar or torp shot but not cannon. Fixed it. Means you can get that bonus damage shot to land, but can't land 3 of them before frost wears off.

    If frost had an hp rating it’d be easy, It’s time based though. TS has an hp. So we can deduct the cannon hp from the shield. But not cannon hp from freeze time.

    @Zeus, this is the limit to how much somebody can falsely advertise. Requesting banhammer on both forum and in-game.

    how about, make the tesla shield regenable, this means that the shield takes X time to reload while slowly healnig up to the maximum hp.
    Say, you get hit by a cannon, -200hp. UR tesla shield protects 1000, and no one else shoots you. So, it takes around 4s to heal back up to 1000.
    But if you get hit for like, 1000hp, you get stunned, and it takes 20s to heal back up full.
    So, its technically a nerf AND buff
    but wait, wouldnt that make the dual tesla shield better?....
    And the more you upgrade it, faster it regens
    I shouldve made a seperate post about this
