Stay Frosty has quite a few great perks to use for PvP. In Column 3, Lone Wolf is just such a powerful trait that requires so little to activate that its quickly becoming a best in slot pick on most weapons. Encore is also an effective option in column 3 as well and either trait will do really well on this pulse rifle. Kill Clip can lower the Time-to-Kill of this pulse rifle down to a very easy to hit .53 seconds even if you miss a single head shot. Headseeker is also a powerful perk to get but the TTK increase from Kill Clip is just too good to not recommend. It also pairs really well with Omolon Fluid Dynamics as every time you activate Kill Clip you also reset the origin trait.
The Stay Frosty is one of the better PvP pulse rifles in the game and this particular iteration of it is even better than previous ones. Make sure you grab a good one before the Dawning event ends.
