Snow Hood

Blizzard zombie drops in frozen biomes

This winter cap drops from Frozen Zombie enemies during snowstorms and blizzards in the surface Snow biome, possessing a 3.33% drop rate. Equipping it into the helmet slot confers 3 defense. It can be worn immediately as an early defense piece or saved to craft the Pink Snow Hood at a workbench once the clothier arrives in town.

Preventing frostbite and cold water slowing

Assembling this hood with Snow Coat and Snow Pants unlocks the Snow armor set bonus, granting immunity to both Chilled and Frozen status effects. This protection allows explorers to dive through frigid underground pools without suffering reduced movement speed. It offers a convenient defensive alternative before finding accessories like the Hand Warmer. Avoiding the chilled status effect ensures players maintain normal jump heights and sprint velocities.

Trivia

• Frozen Zombies only spawn when rain or blizzard weather events occur over the Snow biome.
• The hood sells for 1 gold coin, which is relatively high for an early zombie drop.
