Abilities
Frost has abilities that cause enemies to be slowed or even frozen.
He is capable of sending out a projectile to freeze an enemy solid, send out waves of ice to hit his enemies, create protective barriers of ice for him and his allies and freeze a large area solid.
His passive Cryogenic has a chance to cause melee attackers to be frozen solid.
Freeze
Frost sends out a projectile that freezes or slows enemies for a certain duration.
This comes in handy when you need to freeze a certain enemy so you can take them out later on or to make them easier to kill.

Augment Mod: Freezing Forces allows Freeze to be cast on allies which will add 100% cold damage to their attacks.
Ice Wave
Frost sends out a wave of ice that damages enemies that it comes in contact with.
Ice Wave is useful for taking out groups of enemies and can be used to easily clear out weaker enemies that get in your way.

Augment Mod: Ice Wave Impedance leaves a trail that slows enemies that pass through it.
Desecrate
Frost deploys a sphere around an area that absorbs damage and slows enemies that try to enter.
This is useful for defending a spot or for protecting you or your allies when a source of damage is about to attack the squad.
Enemies close to Frost will be frozen and pushed away depending on the radius and some may shatter upon hitting surfaces.
The health of Snow Globe will stack whenever recast inside another Snow Globe.

Augment Mod: Chilling Globe has a chance to freeze enemies when they are inside the Snow Globe.
Avalanche
Frost freezes enemies in a large radius around him and causes the ice to explode, damaging them and leaving them frozen for a certain duration.
Enemies that are under the effect after Avalanche is cast will have their armor reduced for a period of time.
This ability is great for dealing damage in an area and for crowd control as it can stop enemies in their tracks and give you and your squad a chance to kill them before they thaw out.

Augment Mod: Gives allies in the area 60 damage absorption for each enemy affected by Avalanche.
