NPCs & Enemies Undead Viking Warlord [Boss idea]

[Terrariaplayer123_]

Could the boss use a bow? Because the way it fight seems to be just melee and for those who are ranged and has wings, it will be a one-sided attack.

Not necessarily. The throne room will be small, but high. The boss won't have much ground to cover.

Alternatively, the boss could occasionally draw players towards him.

Thoughts?

Elemental ice energy from the boss draws you closer to it.... AND YOUR DOOM!!! That my concept anyway...
[doublepost=1538061644,1538061536][/doublepost]It could also be like the Tongue debuff from the Wall of Flesh.

Yeah, great idea

Any more questions?

Is the Bound by Ice debuff the same as the Creative Shock debuff but named differently?

It is, yes. Exactly my basis for coming up with that.

When the boss hits you, will it cause a debuff? Like Frostburn, Chilled, or Frozen?

Frankly, I can't really say, as I'm not too good with balancing. Should he? What do you think?

 

[Animus Viral]

I would say Chilled would be the debuff for it because it only slow you down and can't be prevented. The other two debuffs would probably be a 30% chance.
[doublepost=1538062567,1538062443][/doublepost]Would the boss summon others like Ice elementals the same way the Brain of Cthulhu summons Creepers?

Sounds good!

I'd say no, as it would be a cooler fight 1v1, and he'd be more associated with vikings, not elementals, which aren't that fun to spawn.

Would the boss be immune to all fire debuffs? Like the boss is so cold that all fire is dispelled once it gets close.

Likely, yes.

Would the shield the boss carries block most piercing attacks like Jester's Arrows?

The shield would block ANY attack, period.

My word, you're more interested in the boss than me

 

[Animus Viral]

Meh.

 

[Terrariaplayer123_]

Meh.

That’s amazing, well done! I’ll put that in the OP as soon as I get to my laptop

What happens if you have three shards in a chest and your friend enters your world with three shards in his inventory?

You can do the boss twice. Only 3 shards generate in a world at a time, but nothing stops you from bringing more from other worlds!

OP updated. Does anyone else have any concepts they'd like to add?
