The Legendary Frigis Mecha Spotlight On Frozen Dream By Pat Willis#224534

Ah Frozen Dream, my Frigis mecha who acquired me no small amount of fame when it helped me reach legendary pilot status. The battle Artificial Intelligence program received the same upgrades as Jabberwocky making it an Actual Intelligence program, and giving it a near limitless capacity to learn. He took a short break for a time and downloaded himself into a Boreas frame due to frustration at the age, as well as wear and tear his old "body" was put through. So many wars, raids, and tourneys will make short work of almost any mecha fast.

So as he was enjoying his life as a Boreas, I shipped his Frigis frame back to the manufacturer for a complete overhaul and upgrade. It took a while, but eventually they shipped me back a totally overhauled, good as new, like it stepped off the assembly line fresh Frigis. I looked it over head to toe until I was satisfied that it was 100%, then I got the Actual Intelligence back into its proper frame. To say Dream was happy to be back home would be a huge understatement. He started doing laps around the hanger because he enjoyed the lighter frame so much more than the lumbering speed of the Boreas.



As was he came back without weapons and equipment so his basic build stats at my current level of 107 were as follows.....


Tons: 80

Level: 107
Armor: 1061
Class: Frigis

Bonuses before
equipment:
Precision (30)
Speed - 15
Ice Vulnerable 10%
Freeze 58%
Speed + 20
Laser Damage + 46%
Ice Damage + 44%
3X Damage 10%
2X Damage 8%
Shield (40)

He had 4 Cockpit slots, 7 chassis slots, 4 engine slots, and 4 shield slots to be filled. So we got to work right away. I outfitted him with Hawkeye Marksman Modules across all his cockpit slots for added laser damage, added precision, and a small bonus to Crit-Kill  capability. The chassis got 4 Muon Junctions for the combined dodge, fork, and freeze capabilities, combined with 3 Coolant Systems to give it added speed and Ice damage. The 4 engine slots utilize  1 Indefinite Singularity Engine for speed and 2x damage ability, 1 Max Torque Charged engine for the speed, and 2 Parallel Relays for the extra energy output/speed. Lastly the shield slots were taken up by MNTN Delta, Caudata Delta, Arctic Delta, and a Faraday Delta. So all that thrown in on top of the build stats comes out to.....


Fire Damage + 30%
Ice Damage + 74%
Laser Damage + 86%
Missile Damage + 28%
Speed + 68
3X Damage 10%
Fork 24%
2X Damage 11%
Crit-Kill 8%
Precision (74)
Freeze 103%
Dodge (40)
Shield (156)
Ice Shield 28%
Fire Shield 29%
Fire Shield (60)
Proj. Shield 19%
Laser Shield 21%
Missile Vulnerable 9%

On top of that he has room for 33 weapons at present which a couple were borrowed from Jabberwocky as they just made more sense here with the added laser damage potential. So I put the following weapons in 7 Black Widows, 3 Archfiends, 2 Rage Pulsars, 2 Northwind Eradicators, 3 Flavian Spears, 4 Burning Ice, 4 Polar Vortex, 2 Nova Zembla, 1 Tinsel EMP,  and 5 Winter's Grasp.

 So while there are a few things I mean to correct or replace in the near future by and large this is what he is shaping up to be. Yes he is vulnerable to missiles, but with his speed of both the mecha, and his weapons he should get off the shots before missiles fly. Not to mention not a whole lot of folks run missile mechas out in the front line. But before he had an Ice vulnerability of 10%, now he has a less of a percentage to a different weapon type.

 So until multi purpose shields make it to this weight class I just may have to deal with it and hope another shield expansion will pop up eventually. Dream is still a work in progress and won't be done for a bit yet, at least not to my satisfaction, but it is getting there little by little.

So there you have it folks a Frigis that got me where I am today, and what it looks like now both inside and out. I do these pieces so folks can see there are some in the game who aren't afraid to show their builds for good or bad. What's the worst that can happen? Someone builds your load out to fight you? Oh no, not like you can't change it up and out in a short period of time. Also on the flip side you may get feedback to help improve on your already existing build. So what I am saying here folks is basically, stop being scared, show off the builds, get feedback, see what happens. Until next time both Frozen Dream and myself wish you happy hunting.
