So why is this such a big deal? As a lover of ice mecha and weaponry I think I can fill you in on that one. First off look at the straight damage available here. 111 Straight damage, most weapons regardless of weapon type usually top out in the 135 range. Special note would be the Kraken ice weapon which does 150, but that seems to be the exception rather than the rule. So this is a devastating straight damage potential weapon.
Now look at the Speed available here, it's 111 just like the damage. Thing of it is though that is one of THE fastest firing speed ratings I have seen on a weapon. That is in line with the Nakshi signature weapon the Harmonic Disruptor, which is a projectile weapon type. So we have the speed of a roided out projectile weapon being applied to the ice weapon category. That just is a win win situation all the way around.
Now take a gander at the weapon abilities. Crit-Kill at 10% for starters. While it isn't the 19% to be included in the Crit-Kill club it still is rather devastating. Especially when combined with any innate bonuses from mecha build stats, or equipment bonuses. You could make quite the frozen mess with these if you fine tune you Crit-Kill ability.
On top of that we also have a Freeze at 55%. That's drool worthy right there. Over 50% just in weapon ability alone. Now add in any innate build bonuses from your mecha, as well as equipment bonuses or boosts, and well theoretically you could be snapping off frozen shots every other round if not almost every single one. Yes precision will come into play here to determine if you hit or not, so make sure whatever you install these on can hit the broad side of a Vol Worm!
So IF these ever become available again, I would suggest stocking up as much as possible on them. They make for some devastating weapons, fire fast, and have such desirable weapon abilities I'm waiting for them to come standard issue as some new Ice monster mechas signature weapon.
