The Snowman Gangsta is a Hardmode enemy that only spawns during the Frost Legion event. It carries a Tommy Gun and shoots Musket Ball-like projectiles at a slow rate. It can only shoot left or right.

Tips

• Managing to angle oneself above or below him is an effective technique.
• Trapping him in a pit filled with water and using a ranged weapon or a magic weapon on him is effective.

Trivia

• The Snowman Gangsta is the only snowman (barring the unimplemented Exploding Snowman) not to wear a red scarf.
• The Snowman Gangsta's hat is a bowler's hat, and it wields a Thompson Sub-machine gun (A.K.A the Tommy Gun.) Both of these are references to early 1900 American Gangsters, which are often depicted as wearing bowler hats and using Tommy guns in most movies and media.

The Bestiary entry for the Snowman Gangsta: "While the world's inhabitants celebrate festivities, gangster snowmen party by slaying everyone with their tommy guns."
