Ice Cubes
Frozen World Update
The Ice Cubes modification introduces a completely new mob - the Ice Cube, which brings fresh elements to cold biomes and combat mechanics.
New Inhabitants Spawn
Ice Cubes spawn on the surface during nighttime in Frozen Peaks and Ice Spikes biomes. In other cold regions - only in special "Ice Cube chunks," similar to Slime spawning areas.
Behavior and Combat Characteristics
These creatures behave similarly to slimes. During melee attacks, they apply the Chilled effect to the target. Frozen opponents begin acting as if they were in powder snow. When the effect reaches three stacks, it is consumed, dealing additional freeze damage to the target.
In hot biomes, Ice Cubes gradually melt and shrink in size until they perish. There is an inherent animosity between them and Magma Cubes.
Lootable Resources
When killed, Ice Cubes drop 0 to 2 ice blocks, and if slain by a player - additionally 0 to 1 unit of Frost Essence.
Applications of Frost Essence
This valuable material has several uses:
- Used to apply new enchantments in a smithing table
- Can be brewed into Potions of Chilling
- Can be sold to cleric villagers or purchased from wandering traders
New Enchantment Types
Ice Aspect - enchantment for swords (maximum level 1). Upon attack, applies the chill effect and deals additional damage to mobs especially sensitive to freezing.
Everfrost - enchantment for armor (maximum level 1). Applies the chill effect to attackers and provides immunity to freeze damage.
