PVE PVP Offense Defense
Frost Ace.jpg Frost Ace
Purple Purple B C C -
Pros
  • Very good Ice Nuker with built-in Ice Boost and Master Assassin in Purple.
  • Vengeful Frost Fist is a heavy hitting Ice-element Physical attack with Bulwark Pierce that can Crit and autocasts Rebellion on hit. This allows him to crit infinitely at the cost of 5 MP.
  • Icy Rage gives him 20% to his accuracy to mitigate the chance of Vengeful Frost Fist missing.
  • Icy Rage and panel 2 provide a teamwide Ice damage buff, incredible for Democalypse and Avarice 14.
  • When activating Vengeful Frost Fist or when a party member (including self) reflects an attack, it does 50 Ice physical damage with Bulwark Pierce and 50% crit rate to a single enemy, and then proceeds to apply Might to the entire party.
  • If P3, can work as a budget Queen Frost option for Avarice 14 as he applies Repel Phys (Almighty) when anyone on his team performs a critical hit.
  • At P4, he applies Charge to self when he is about to act, allowing Vengeful Frost Fist to do even more damage.
Cons
Notes
  • Hee Ho
  • Since his Repel Phys (Almighty) only activates when a party member lands a Critical hit, Avarice 14's Kali's Goddess of Slaughter+ will still hit at the beginning of the turn.
  • Will trigger one heal from Shiva in A14 as Icy Rage with proc another chain of Destruction and Creation after repelling it the first time
  • Buffed during the 8/1/24 data update.
