Frost spirits of the underground snow
Ice Elementals are ethereal floating specters that drift through the frozen caverns of the Underground Snow biome in Hardmode. Gliding gracefully through open caverns, they track players from range while preparing freezing magical attacks. They float into confrontation possessing 200 health alongside 20 defense.
Evading frosty spikes and looting ice sickles
Rather than engaging in physical melee, Ice Elementals launch sharp ice spikes dealing 55 damage in Classic and 110 in Expert, which inflict the Chilled and Frozen debuffs to restrict player movement. Defeating them provides the Frost Staff at a 2% rate and the Ice Sickle at a 1% rate, giving explorers powerful ranged ice armaments.
Trivia
- Ice Elementals can float freely through air without touching ground tiles.
- The Chilled debuff inflicted by their spikes cuts player movement speed significantly.
