Ice Golem

The Ice Golem is a rare hardmode enemy that is found in the Snow biome during a Blizzard. It possesses a damaging melee attack as well as a ranged laser which freezes players. They are immune to the Poisoned, Venom, Confused, and Frostburn debuffs. They can be found during both day and night. A good way to know one has spawned is a blue lazer beam somewhere in the air.

It is possible to farm several Ice Feather and Frost Armor sets in if prepared properly in early hardmode, allowing the player to acquire useful and powerful equipment easily, sometimes even skipping several tiers of armor. Ice golems, like all enemies, are more common at night due to higher enemy spawn rates. Please note however that it is possible to get more than one item dropped from the golem, although quite unlikely. Ice Golems can also, although rarely, drop the Frost Staff which is a strong weapon in early hardmode. The Frost Staff is also considered melee which can help many fighters/melee characters.
