The Ice Bow firing Frost Arrows.

The Ice Bow is a Hardmode bow that has a 19/60 (31.67%) chance of being dropped by Ice Mimics. When used, it converts any type of arrow into high-velocity Frost Arrows. Unlike the Frostburn Arrow item, they do not inflict the Frostburn debuff.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

  • In don't dig up and Get fixed boi seeds, the Ice Bow receives the following changes:
    • Switched place with Snowball Cannon. As a result, it is found in Frozen Chests, or dropped by Ice Mimics during pre-Hardmode, instead of dropped by Ice Mimics during Hardmode.
    • Damage decreased from 39 to 8.
    • Use time increased from 14 to 17.
    • Sell value decreased from 5 GC to 2 GC.

Tips

  • Like other bows that fire special arrows, arrows with the highest damage stat should be used, as all special arrow properties is ignored. Alternatively, to conserve resources, the Endless Quiver should be used.
