Freeze Gland

Freeze gland is a crafting material dropped by drakes, the small flying frost dragons found in the high mountain regions. It is one of the key late-game ingredients tied to mountain progression and frost-themed equipment.

Its main use is in cold and magical crafting recipes. Freeze gland is required for Eyescream, Frost arrows, Frostner, and the Staff of Frost. In practice, that makes it valuable both for ranged damage and for strengthening frost-based melee and magic builds. Because several important mountain and magic items need it, drake hunting is a reliable way to stock up before investing in these recipes.

• Eyescream requires 3 Greydwarf eyes and 1 Freeze gland at a level 3 cauldron.
• Frost arrows are crafted in batches of 20 at a level 4 workbench using 8 wood, 4 obsidian, 2 feathers, and 1 Freeze gland.
• Frostner is crafted at a level 3 forge.
• Staff of Frost is crafted at a level 1 Galdr Table.

Freeze gland has no listed use at the workbench, forge, cauldron, or Galdr table beyond the recipes above. Its value comes entirely from being a component for these specific crafted items. Since drakes are the source, players exploring mountain peaks will naturally gather Freeze glands while also collecting other mountain-tier materials such as obsidian.
