Frost Enchant is way too underwhelming in PVP.

I love the Frost Weapon Enchantment in PVE, it's perfect and fits the application well. It has become very potent and almost required for initiators in Mod 6.

However, in PVP, this enchantment is trash compared to any other enchantment, any other version. It looks like it does something, adding more recharge, but it can only be noticed on fast recharging skills like Repel, Dazing Strike and Trapper HRs (as it hammers their rotations pretty significantly from what I've noticed).

Can the Devs look at balancing this enchantment a bit? Reducing stamina gain IMO would be pretty awesome. It could use a bit of love.

    Agree, devs must rework and make it more useful not only for pve but for pvp too. add some slow effect or freeze on 1 sec every 20 sec. something like that. we need some love 4 this enchant

    This just in: weapon and armor enhancements have no balance amongst each other, or even in the greater game as a whole.

    Cryptic's usual response: *6+ months of crickets* ... "We're busy with the next module right now, we'll look at it afterwards" ... *rinse and repeat*

    They made two worthwhile enchantments that actually work. Greedy much? Seriously, as a lazy person who doesn't like having to answer to others I think I would make an ideal Cryptic dev.

    there are a bunch that work. and a bunch that are useless,

    works, terror, fey,vorpal ( up to perfect), pfire ( up to pure), lifedrinker ( pure +), lighting.
    the rest are kinda meh. or completely useless

    realistically i don't think they can make all enchantments useful, some wod be more preferable than others

    What level is your frost enchantment, I go crazy with people with higher level frosts.. a regular enchant of any item, isnt all that powerful normally.

    I have a perfect Frost enchant... and in PVP it is underwhelming.

    In PVE it is great

    I only have a 26% chance for Crit so the Vorp is not that great either...

    Wish it ( Frost) could be tweaked up a bit
