''Disclaimer: This suggestion is most unlikely to get any attention by PR, or is an official thing. This remains in a speculative position to just show a suggestion, and nothing more. TL:DR is included!''

I know, it's in the red section of never happening in Planned Updates, however, it might work out without being very overpowering. So this suggestion is... eh, not getting into very much detail, but this will give you the basic idea of how I will refer to this.

Everyone knows what the elemental looks like, so posting an image will just be inadequate. Except it being pure fire, it will look ghostly white with white smoke particles coming off it. The mod is ideally support since it's key role isn't directly into offense. The attacks will be listed below:

E Key - [Transform]: Comes right after the Jolt when below 100 Hp or less. In colder environments such as Foxriver or WinterWonderland maps, there is a 70% chance on transforming into a Frost Elemental. They will have the same cash reward, health, energy and speed as all elementals.

Lmb Button - [Frost Ray]: This is like the Jolt's attack; once you click on a survivor, you are locked into place and damage the survivor. However, it damages 2 HP per second until the energy is depleted. This does not freeze (or 'Stun') survivors into blocks like the Old R2D since most people have complained about this.

F Key - [Frost Burst]: Basically like the Old R2D's Ice trap ability - the one that makes you careen in the air - this can be a return ability that makes ice spikes shoot out of the ground, when struck, it will cause 15 HP damage in total, and yeah.. careen you away.

(Passive Ability) - [Frost Damage]: This is passive in the elementals attacks and on it's very being. Instead of freezing you into a statue - as of Old R2D. To change things up, people can still move around at free will, but when struck by either ability or in close contact, your energy will drain to 0 in seconds, even energy boosts like Juice will be removed, while reducing walkspeed by -9 for roughly 3 seconds. This makes the survivor extremely vulnerable to being swarmed

What Is The Purpose Of The Frost Elemental?

This, as mentioned, is mean't to be a support mob - not a direct offensive mob. This Elemental would be in most use against tougher survivors with higher ranks and weapons. The Elemental may not be a huge threat if you know what your doing, but with reduced energy and slow movement is a ceptible target for any zombified players to kill the target as quick as they could. They would mostly be used on longer game-modes such as Campaign, USRV or vs Environment, otherwise, you would not see them AS often unless under those circumstances.

'''TL:DR - See Statistics on the Ability Sections provided. SOME reading may be required...'''

I do hope you enjoyed this suggestion. I had just recently been thinking this through for a while.

Feel free to leave a kudo at your liberty - Again, I am not asking for them deliberately...
