Freezing needle barrages in sub-zero caverns
Spiked Ice Slimes are dangerous hazards in the Underground Snow biome. Holding 60 life and 8 defense, they deal 12 contact damage in Classic, 24 in Expert, and 36 in Master. When a player enters line of sight, this gelatinous foe fires volleys of sharp ice needles that inflict Chilled, slowing movement speed and leaving explorers vulnerable to slippery frozen ice blocks.
Piercing through chilled spikes on frozen lakes
Because the ice needles pass through open cavern air with high velocity, players should utilize narrow doorways or solid barriers to block incoming projectiles while returning ranged fire. Upon defeat, Spiked Ice Slimes drop Gel at 100% (1–2 units), Ice Cream at 0.67%, and carry a 0.01% chance to yield the Slime Staff summon.
Trivia
- In Expert and Master mode, ice needles fired by Spiked Ice Slimes can inflict the Frozen debuff, immobilizing the player.
