Frost Sentry

Overview
The Frost Sentry is a stationary mob that attacks by summoning ice spikes from the ground toward the player. Because it does not move, its threat comes from controlling space rather than pursuing the player, and it can pressure anyone who stays in its line of attack.
Its attack style makes positioning important. The ice spikes erupt toward the player, so staying mobile is the safest way to avoid being pinned down by repeated hits. Since the mob remains in place, it can be dealt with more easily once its attack pattern is read, but its fixed position also means it can keep firing from a safe spot if the player is forced to approach it directly.
- The Frost Sentry does not roam like most enemies.
- It summons ice spikes out of the ground instead of using a direct melee attack.
- Its danger increases when the player lingers in one place or is forced into a narrow approach.
- Fighting it is easier when movement is kept constant and distance is managed carefully.
