    Currently frost items are almost non-existent at all levels. The nerf they received was very brutal. Not only was the effect reduced but the frost itself is instantly destroyed with one hit.

    Frost should have its effect reduced by 25%-50% for every hit. Torpedoes and fire items completely remove this effect. That way it will be atleast usable and a small nerf or buff could be in order if this wasn't enough but please don't do something drastic

    I still believe frost should affect turret agility, like the carronade slow. It'd help rudder equipped close combatants quite a bit.

    Frost blaster needs more work,Launcher i think is Fine! (Usable).If the frost items are Kept one shot break l,Then blaster should be made easy to use so it can be used Frequetly as assist tool like launcher while also landing a torp if opportunity permits.Give blaster the Curve similar to sniper making it more usable long range....

    Frost is still good at the top but the removal of 1 shot breaking of frost would be welcome.

    I think frost should behave like tesla bolt, tracking over waves. In fact you could solve the tesla bolt being OP and make it line of sight like the frost blaster is now to match how the railgun already behaves

    If frost travelled over the waves it would frost the water, Tesla bolt runs through because it is electricity, so if a frosted projectile travelled through the waves it would have to leave a trace

    Just remove the one-shot breaking, that would be enough. There is no need to remake the frost mechanics.

    This is how frost used to be. While stun was completely removed when shot at, frost had 50% of its time removed for each shot. I think it should only be completely removed when hit with something that is boosted by frost, though, like a mortar or torpedo. Anything else should only reduce the time (50% like before). I like the idea of fire items also completely removing the effect, but I think it'd be cooler if it just made the timer go down faster, stacking with each burn debuff.
