Cryo Droid

Cryo Droids are hostile droids  that are first encountered in  Elemental Heights / Gingerbread Glaciers  (If the world spawns) and can be found in all other worlds after its initial debut.

Appearance
 1.0 

Cryo Droid 1.0, or its normal variant, has dark blue skin with a blue torso and a helmet which has a gradient, with a light blue color that darkens at the bottom of the helmet. It has a different face to that of normal droids, smiling with blue snowflake eyes. The eyes stay the same after every variation.

 2.0 

Cryo Droid 2.0, its second variant, has a lighter color scheme to that of Cryo Droid 1.0.

 3.0 

Cryo Droid 3.0, its third variant, has an even lighter color scheme to that of the 1.0 and 2.0 variants. Its torso and helmet are both completely white so the helmet loses its gradient coloring.

Behavior

 * Cryo Droids chase you like any normal droid but it has practically infinite range, and will immediately start chasing a player unless it is behind a wall (as Droids cannot see through solid walls).


 * Every second, it will make a beep sound. After every beep/second, it spawns an icicle above or near its target (above itself if it is not ). After three beeps/seconds, it will drop the icicles, each dealing,  to players hit by the icicles. The icicles don't in any way effect the Cryo Droid itself. After dropping the icicles, it will count back down from 3 to 1.


 * Each counterpart increases the amount of icicles spawned by 1 and decreases the number of beeps before dropping the icicles by 1. The 2.0 counterpart will drop the icicles after two beeps, spawning 2 icicles every beep, whereas the 3.0 counterpart drops the icicles after one, spawning all 5 at the same time.


 * When the Cryo Droid dies, it will drop any icicles that hasn't dropped yet.

Combat Tips

 * Cryo Droids move very slowly, but have high and , even more than that of the Tank Droids so its very tedious for you to kill them. You should always kite them to deal more damage, making the fight quicker. Still beware of the icicles while kiting and always retreat before the icicles fall.


 * Zoom your camera out to see where the icicles are. This allows you to avoid the icicles while still attacking the Cryo Droid.


 * Unlike Pyro Droids, you should use a  when fighting Cryo Droids to minimise the chances of getting hit by the icicles.


 * As the icicles damage any player it touches, don't walk/stay underneath the icicles. And since the swords  lunging speed is similar to the rate of the beeping, you can use your attacks to time your retreat. For example, against a regular Cyro Droid, you can usually hit it 3 times before backing away. Finally, when the Cyro Droid dies, you should instantly retreat if there are icicles which about to drop before collect the.


 * With, Cryo Droids become much less of a threat as you can completely ignore all  from its icicles, making the Cryo Droid just a glorified Tank Droid.


 * is twice as powerful against Cryo Droids, so fire-based weaponry is more effective against them. If the shop  right before Chill Hills sells a fire-based weapon, it is usually a good idea to buy it. For example, you can use the Ruby Sword if you have bought it.

Trivia

 * The Cryo Droid used to be able to heal when its icicles touched it, but this was removed.


 * The Cryo Droid is one of the few Droids in the game with multiple types of attacks.


 * The Cryo Droid is one of the few Droids that can deal damage after it is defeated.


 * Unlike most droids, each counterpart makes its skin lighter.
