Ice Bats are flying Bat Enemies, similar to the regular Cave Bat in behavior and appearance. Its icy nature causes struck players to be inflicted with the Chilled Debuff, and more rarely, the Frozen Debuff. It emits a very faint glow, which can sometimes reveal nearby caverns.

It is found in the Ice biome. It is larger and more powerful than a Cave Bat, and may prove challenging for players without a Gun or other ranged weapon.

Tips

• If a Hand Warmer is equipped, the debuffs inflicted by this enemy are negated.

Notes

• The Ice Bat becomes extremely rare once Hardmode is initiated.

Trivia

• The Bestiary entry for the Ice Bat: "As if bats weren't enough of a nuisance already, Ice Bats can freeze flesh solid with a touch, leaving their prey defenseless."
