So can someone explain to me why a Warden can wade through the water from one end to the other with out getting frozen, but if I even get splashed by the water I am half frozen? Lmao… Makes no sense at all…

You ask a simple question.
But to TC, sometimes those are the hardest to answer. Even harder to fix.

Because it would be “too easy” to freeze a big enemy that way, probably, since clearly Gears 5 Horde has to be so “skillful” rather than fun. But practically the only things I ever see frozen on higher difficulties is Trackers, Juvies and Leeches with the occasional Drone, everything else basically just walks through the ice water like it’s nothing or has to stand in it for ages to freeze.
Would be better on the more balanced mid level or lower difficulties, but then, the player skills are also strong enough that they can get boring.

Same reason you get spritzed by one bullet and go down on master yet you can put a whole clip in a drone before they start to go down themselves.
I mean it is a game and there’s a lot of contrived phenomena to make it such. It’s actually all over the place and a warden not freezing in the water is one small example. I think we just get used to them.
It’s probably for the best for a lot of reasons.
It is nice though that the incinerator on forge last I checked would kill a boss at any level.
