Frostmaws (Frostmawcanthus frozenii) are dangerous beasts found rarely in snowy areas. Their massive size, impressive speed, and powerful ice breath make them near-impossible opponents. If, on your travels, you encounter one sleeping in your path, it's likely best to take a different route and let it lay. The beast guards a precious ice crystal that can unleash pure winter energy when wielded.
Behavior[]
Frostmaws spawn asleep, holding an Ice Crystal in their hand. This Crystal can be picked up just like any other dropped item. When a sleeping Frostmaw is approached by a player or attacked, it wakes up, swallowing its Crystal (if it still has it) then using its roar attack before attacking said player. When attacking, it alternates between the following attacks:
- Swipes at its target, dealing 9 damage to everything in front of it
- Roars, knocking nearby mobs and players away
- Breathes ice using its Ice Crystal, this has the same effect as a player using one, and the Frostmaw will not use this attack if its Crystal has been stolen
- Stands on its hind leg, then slams the ground in front of it, dealing 36 damage to anything it hits, it will only use its attack when its health is below 60% of its maximum
If a Frostmaw spends 1 minute without an attack target, it will go back to sleep, putting its Crystal back in its hand.
When killed it drops an Ice Crystal, provided it has not been stolen.
