Permafrost is a new Stasis Wave Frame special Grenade Launcher from Destiny 2 Dawning 2025. This one is a brand-new weapon without any reworks from previous versions, meaning that players can theory-craft to their heart's content. However, a Stasis Wave Frame opens the door for several add-control builds, as the Stasis synergy is filled with slow, freeze, and shatter.
This article lists the best perks on the Permafrost Grenade Launcher for PvE and PvP.

Here is a list of perks for Permafrost in PvE:
- Linear Compensator for increased Stability, Blast Radius, and Velocity.
