The Snowman Gangsta is a Hardmode enemy that spawns during the Frost Legion event. It moves by hopping toward the player while occasionally firing bullets at them at a slow rate, and can only shoot left or right.

Tips

  • Managing to position oneself above or below the enemy is recommended in warding them off effectively.
  • The Snowman Gangsta can be defeated easily by trapping it in a pit filled with water and using a ranged weapon or a magic weapon.

Trivia

  • The Snowman Gangsta is the only snowman (bar the unimplemented Exploding Snowman) not to wear a red scarf.
  • The Snowman Gangsta's gun resembles a Thompson submachine gun, also known as a "Tommy gun", and was a common firearm in the possession of crime syndicates during the Prohibition era due to its availability to the general public in the 1920s.
  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Snowman Gangsta: "While the world's inhabitants celebrate festivities, gangster snowmen party by slaying everyone with their tommy guns."
