When a particle from Cryo Cannon damages a Frozen enemy and brings its health below 100 "true" hp, it has a (1 - hp/100) probability to deal the remaining hp as Kinetic Damage.
Cool down enemies within 4m of you at a rate of 60 Cold/sec. This stacks with the direct stream and Ice Path's cold sources as well.

Enemies damaged will have their movespeed slowed by 50% for 1 second
Whenever the CWC damages a Burning or Frozen enemy, it inflicts 50% of its damage as Heat or 75% as Cold (respectively) to all enemies within a 2.5m radius (including the Burning/Frozen enemy itself). This causes the primary target to have an extended Burning or Frozen duration, while also causing nearby enemies to start to Ignite or Freeze.
Press Reload to toggle Wide Lens Add-On off/on. When activated, x1.25 Shot Width in exchange for +110% Heat Generation.
Press Reload to toggle Power Supply Overdrive off/on. When activated, +2.5 Rate of Fire in exchange for x0.1 Shot Width and +40% Heat Generation
x1.3 Damage vs enemies afflicted by Neurotoxin, Corrosion, or Sludge Puddles. Additionally, a 10% chance per ammo to spread Neurotoxin from the primary target to nearby enemies.
Enemies killed by the Wave Cooker have a 50% chance to explode, dealing 100 Explosive Area Damage in a 2.5m radius.
Every time the Wave Cooker damages a Burning or Frozen enemy, it has a 25% chance to trigger Exothermic Reactor. Exothermic Reactor sets the enemy's temperature back to zero, applies Temperature Shock to them (dealing 200 Disintegrate-element damage), and causes the enemy to deal 50 Temperature "damage" in a 2m radius -- Heat if they were Burning, or Cold if they were Frozen.

Note:

Close-Medium Thermal Shock Centered Build: Freeze w/ Cryo Cannon, finish off with Wave Cooker. ​ Thermal Shock - When an enemy is frozen or set on fire, if enough of the opposite element is applied to the enemy: the enemy will take 200 disintegration damage

Cryo Cannon Upgrades:

T1 - Can spec into "Stronger Cooling Unit" to increase freeze power to 10 T2 - Can spec into "Larger Reserve Tanks" but extra reach helps with instakilling fliers through freezing

Pros

  • Very ammo efficient across both weapons
  • Extremely consistent Thermal Shock Procs which makes it good against both Swarms and Big Targets
  • Wide Lens allows for easy application of Thermal Shock on Swarms clearing hordes
  • Good CC (Thanks to freeze being pretty broke)

Cons

  • Bad against Rival (Mechanical) Enemies
  • Both weapons are capable of overheating (Cryo's Pressure Gauge and Wave Cooker's Overheat) and OCs affect their cooldown rate negatively
