Four heavy statues must be found and placed on the plates. On the left side there will be fiends and on the right will be beasts. It is suggested that everyone stick together and clear one side before venturing into the other. Players will usually clear the beast side first for the chance at obtaining more pills and hearts from easier enemies. The Tundralisks here seem to always carry a pickup. |

Most of the monsters are trapped in sections but will soon be freed by blast blocks counting down to a ghost block, so charge up a piercing gun, let loose, and repeat as quickly and efficiently as possible. It would be smart for 1-2 players to shield up in front of 1-2 Blitz Needle or Callahan users for this area. Pop the boxes in the med cache at the end of this fight and head north. |

There are respawn pads that will continuously produce Tundralisks in the right-hand corners of the coliseum. Try to ignore them and focus on defeating everything else. |

Heart of Ice is a dangerous prestige mission.
Overview
Description:
Warning: This is a Dangerous Mission!
Desna and her Recon Rangers are an elite team tasked with recovering intel from some of the most dangerous levels of the Clockworks. Joining them could lead to great rewards, but it is guaranteed to be a perilous journey!
Spiral HQ has detected a sudden climate shift emanating from deep within the Clockworks. Freak snowstorms and blizzards have begun surging through the depths seeming to originate from an inhospitable, fiendish city known as 'Amu-Sol.' The Recon Rangers have been dispatched to infiltrate Amu-Sol and discover the source of these freezing storms.
Objective:
Discover the source of the terrible blizzards emanating from Amu-Sol.
Notes
This mission was introduced with release 2012-08-01. It is the third Danger Mission released.
It is part of the daily Prestige Mission Rotation.
As with all danger missions, the party locks for the second combat floor and onward. Players will only have access to the arsenal station in the lobby and at the start of the first combat floor. Participants will only receive the prestige reward if they were present in the mission lobby.
Frozen Souls spawn continuously in many areas of the mission if there are two members or fewer in the party.
Chilling Howlitzers are rarely replaced by normal Howlitzers in combat depths.
There are a few computers in this mission where you can read about how Devilites had planned to freeze the Clockworks with the support of Maulos. This involves contact with Morgral'm.
Strategy
- moved to better name, doubt this is linked to externally.Recommended Equipment:
The recommended armor set for this mission is a Piercing/Shadow hybrid. One popular choice is the Skolver/Snarbolax, considering they both give the corresponding defenses and freeze resistance. Any additional resistance from UVs, trinkets, or perks can potentially make you immune to the wisps and souls throughout the mission. Nearly all the monsters in this mission are weak to piercing. A defensive shield such as the Dread Skelly is highly recommended.
Suggested Weapons (make this list shiny with icons):
- Dark Briar Barrage
- Blitz Needle
- Callahan
- Final Flourish
