-----
Ice Armor style powers now have four new, less obtrusive power themes so your character no longer has to be covered in ice cubes! This affects Ice Armor's Frozen Armor, Wet Ice, Glacial Armor, and Energy Absorption (only has Frost theme for now), Cold Domination's Ice Shield and Glacial Shield, and all versions of Frozen Armor in ancillary/patron pools.
- Icy Coating theme: A shifting layer of thin icy chips fitting closer to your character's body
- Frost Armor theme: A subtle layer of translucent frost on your character
- Chill Armor theme: A cloud of cold mist around your character
- No Covering theme: A minimal FX style theme with no obscuring graphics

Fixed missing description on the (Corruptor) Scorching Blast proc Super Pack card.
