(Idea partially inspired by @Leinfors during a talk on his Lihzahrd Invasion thread)
Note: I have since been informed that threads by SzGamer have similar concepts, so I'm offering this as a slight alternative.
Thanks to @SilverHexxitFights for the sprites!
Face it, the Frost Legion is kinda pathetic. It's just a bunch of snowmen that drop nothing but snow blocks. And the only thing it does is let Santa Claus move in. Santa just sells a bunch of random Christmas junk that doesn't seem worth fighting an invasion to obtain. I think it should be improved. A lot. Better enemies, better loot, better results. Let's get to it, shall we?
First of all, a change to the drop tables.
-Mister Stabby has a 50% chance to drop 1-3 throwing knives.
-Snowman Gangsta has a 75% chance to drop 1-3 musket balls.
-Snow Balla drops snowballs at the same rate as goblins' spiky balls.
-Mister Stabby has a 2% chance to drop a Sharpened Machete or Steel Shank.
-All snowmen drop 5-20 silver coins.
Also (idea by PulseFox) all snowmen take double damage from fire-type attacks.
New Miniboss: Mutant Killer Snow Goon (Calvin and Hobbes, anyone?)
Health: 750
Damage: 30 contact, 50 snowballs
Defense: 15
Knockback Resist: 50%
Wields a snowball machine gun.
Getting hit by a snowball (from you or a snow balla) will heal him for 20 health.
Sometimes creates Mister Stabbys.
Drops: Snowball Machine Gun (2%)
Sharpened Machete
Boomerang type weapon. Acts exactly like Bloody Machete when thrown.
Damage: 40
Knockback: average
Steel Shank
(Sprite Pending)
Shortsword. Average reach.
Damage: 35
Speed: 15
Knockback: weak
Crit: 10%
Snowball Machine Gun
Damage: 30 ranged
Attack Speed: 6
Ammo: Snowballs
After the Frost Legion has been defeated, it has results other than Santa Claus.
-Hand Warmers are added to the drop tables of all mobs that can inflict Chilled or Frozen.
-Corruption/Crimson/Hallow spread is slightly slowed while in an ice biome.
So, yeah, that's about it. Any other ideas are appreciated. What do you think?
