Tips

  • Lives in Howling Caverns in the Mountains. His frost blast only goes straight ahead: step aside and strike.
  • Weak to fire: the Staff of Embers or Fire Arrows do more than Needle Arrows. He's immune to frost.
  • Hug him to shut off the frost blast, but back off when he slams the ground: the ice nova can't be blocked or dodged.
