The Ice Bat is a flying bat enemy that spawns in the Ice biome. 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.

Notes

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

Tips

• If a Hand Warmer is equipped, the debuffs inflicted by this enemy are negated.
• The Ice Bat is larger and more powerful than a Cave Bat, and may prove challenging for players without a gun or other ranged weapon.

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."
