Frost Savage is difficult to use because of relying on getting hit to trigger the barrier. He’s even less useful in Arena/PvP because he won’t ever do the bonus damage to the banner unless paired with Grand Slam Samurai (22.13% chance) and/or Nightmare Bard (21.8% chance), and you will almost always want Matilda with the Nightmare set in your party if you’re bringing Frost Savage.
In PvE, since your score relies on your birds’ remaining health, getting hit to trigger Freeze isn’t in your best interest. Since Bard has a poor heal, you will need to give Frost Savage the Sugar Rush set to supplement Bard’s poor healing. Still, Frost Savage is better to use in PvE since every can attack you, unlike the banner which will never get frozen and can only get stunned at a low rate. If foes strike multiple times or hit all foes, pair with Cleric to trigger all the heals and increase the freeze rate.
Interestingly, an Illusionist giving a Clone to Grand Slam Samurai means that Red will have a 39.36% chance to stun with each attack. Giving a clone to Nightmare Bard gives Matilda a 38.85% chance to stun. Still, this is a poor use of Frost Savage, and you’re better off with Nightmare Bard in this case.
tl;dr Don’t use Frost Savage in Arena/PvP. Pair him with Nightmare Bard/Cleric.
