The Arcosians, known also as Frieza Race or Frost Demons, are members of the same mysterious alien race as Frieza and his family. In their appearances in the Dragon Ball series, every member is considered very powerful relative to the rest of the universe. They have tails (though they provide no benefit in-game) and are the only race that have transformations made to reduce their power.
Appearance[]
First Arcosian skin, modeled after Freeza.
Second Arcosian skin, modeled after King Cold.
Third Arcosian skin, modeled after Cooler.
Arcosians have no hair, but have 3 different body types. These body types are based on the looks of Frieza, King Cold, and Cooler, respectively. They have 4 different body colors, but with body type 1, only the 1st and 3rd are used in their base form and their fourth transformed state. At all times, they have a tail that waves behind them, and they have horns in most of their transformed states. In their minimal, 1st, and 2nd forms, the horns are black, though in their 3rd form and their 4th "Super" form, their horns are the same color as their heads. Their ears are hollow rectangular protuberances on the sides of their heads. They are the only race that is fully naked when using a custom skin, seen after their 3rd form.
Stats[]
Compared with the Attributes of Humans, Arcosians begin the game with a high 15 in Spirit and Constitution, but their Dexterity and Mind are at a low 5. They also have a bonus modifier to Defense at 20%, Stamina at 10%, and Speed at 30%, with their Speed and Defense modifiers being higher than the ones of any other race.
Transformations[]
Arcosians have the 2nd highest number of transformations, behind Saiyans and Half-Saiyans, and the most of them without needing to upgrade their racial skill. Unlike any other race, 4 of these transformations lower their stats, lower their chances of getting TP from an attack, and increase the rate they regenerate Ki at. They must level up their "Transformations" racial skill to unlock the beneficial transformations.
Minimal[]
Minimal Form
Minimal is the lowest transformed state, called "Form0" in the game files. It is the form an Arcosian is set to after it uses "Descend". It triples Ki Regeneration, decreases combat Attributes by 70%, and grows Power Points by 6.
First Form
First[]
First Form is the transformation immediately after Minimal and is very slightly taller than it. It increases Ki Regeneration by 150%, decreases combat Attributes by 60%, and grows Power Points by 4.
Second Form
Second[]
Second Form is the 2nd transformation after Minimal and is far taller than the First Form. The form doubles Ki Regeneration, decreases combat Attributes by 40%, and grows Power Points by 2.
Third Form
Third Form[]
Third Form is the 3rd transformation after Minimal and is significantly wider than Second Form. It increases Ki Regeneration by 50%, decreases combat Attributes by 20%, and grows Power Points by 1.
Base/Final Form
Base Form / Final Form[]
The Base Form does not change Attributes, Ki Regeneration, or physical size. It is the first form to benefit from the Power Point system, using 20 points.
Super/Fourth/Fifth Form, with mask
Super / Fourth / Fifth Form[]
Super Form, also known as Fifth Form or Fourth Form, is the first transformed state which increases an Arcosian's power. It is obtained after "Transformations" level 3. It doubles combat Attributes and drains Ki by 50% of the Ki Regeneration rate. Its aura has electricity, making it very similar to a SSJ2. It benefits from Power Points, using 30 points.
Ultimate Form / Golden Form[]
Ultimate/ Golden
Ultimate, also known as Golden Form, is the final transformation obtained through the racial skill, being unlocked at "Transformations" level 6, its final level. Once it is unlocked, its colors may be changed, but they can only be re-changed making a wish on the Dragon Balls to do so. It increases combat Attributes by 2.5x and drains Ki at the normal Ki Regeneration rate. It causes the aura to change to yellow fire; creating yellow, orange, and white smoke around the user. It has the same Attribute changes and Ki drain as SSJ3.
Power Points[]
Arcosians have access to the Power Points mechanic after "Transformations" level 1. The points are gained while in a "Descended" transformation with a Ki Release under 50%, being gained at the same rate as Ki is regenerated. The storage limit increases by 500 for every point in "Transformations", with the exception of level 3. They are used when at 100% Ki Release in Base Form or above, increasing the combat Attribute modifier by 1.15x. When in use, they are drained at a constant rate at the same time as Ki is regenerated or decreased. For the transformations not unique to Arcosians, Mystic drains at a rate of 70 points, God at 90, and Ultra Instinct and God of Descruction both at 100.
