FROST BOSS: URSKA
The permafrost has begun to
melt, revealing fragments of an ancient past ... and awakening something deep
in the ice. Battle through Skaldeskar's frostbitten lands with the aid of its
warrior queen, Linnea Silver, and seek out the Adversary of Vylmark: the
bloodthirsty Urska.
LEGENDARY
WEAPONS
Facing a Urska in Frost Escalation will unlock schematics
for all of its legendary weapons. These high-powered weapons aren't easy to
craft, but the perks are worth the extra effort.
PRISMATIC
CELL SLOTS
Each legendary weapon features two prismatic cell slots —
universal slots capable of holding any cell you own. Leverage them to fine-tune
your build and take on even tougher challenges.
WEAPON
BOND
Bond your Urska weapon to another frost weapon to gain
its perk (e.g. +1 Conditioning) and unique effect (e.g. After dodging, drop 3
ice mines around you on a 30 second cooldown that deal 300 damage). Weapons
must be the same type and element to bond.
LEGENDARY
ABILITY
Activating your Urska weapon's legendary ability will
create a frost shield that blocks hostile projectiles for a period of time.
Enemies that touch the shield while it is active will take damage and become
chilled. This ability can also interrupt.
URSKA
ARMOUR
The Urska armour set draws its strength from three
built-in perks: Aetheric Frenzy, Guardian, and Cascade —
a new perk that generates up to four random collectible boosts when you use
your lantern hold ability. Armour schematics unlock when you face your first
Urska.
Want to show off your Escalation expertise? Earn 25
talent points in Frost Escalation to unlock the Urska ultra armour — a cosmetic
upgrade set with additional fur and ice
details.
