Frost Shield

Frost Shield (トライアードサンダー) is the weapon X obtains from Blizzard Buffalo in Mega Man X3. Despite its name, Frost Shield's uncharged form is an icicle-like missile that delays before firing. When the shot hits an enemy or obstacle, it ricochets to the ground, forming a three-pronged ice spike that stays on-screen for a few moments. When fully charged, a spiked ice mass forms on X's arm cannon which will damage anything it touches. If it isn't destroyed by contacting an enemy, the shield will fire on its own after a set time, sliding across the terrain until it breaks or disappears. When charged underwater, the Frost Shield becomes a ice boulder that floats to the top of the water's surface where it can be used as a platform. This weapon is very effective against Toxic Seahorse, Bit, and Sigma's standard form.

 * X is unable to fire a charged Frost Shield while any ice spikes from previous shots are still on the screen.
