Description

Your enemies will surely enjoy the cool, refreshing sensation of being hit by a glacier.

Attacks

Basic Attack

A powerful, if slow, 2-hit combo that covers a full 180 degree arc in front of the knight on both swings. The first hit is stationary and has a one square radius with a fair knockback. The second hit will move the knight one square forward and does a stronger attack with a 2 square radius reach.

Charge Attack

The Grintovecs's charge attack will lunge the attacking knight about 2 1/2 squares forward and smash the area yet another 1 1/2 squares forward, hitting everything from 360 degree radius in a single square away from the blast and possibly inflicting freeze on hit monsters. The farthest an attack will reach is 4 squares away; Because the time it takes to complete the attack leaves a window of opportunity for enemies to damage the player, its best to be standing this 4 square distance away so as to be out of range. The charged attack's knock-back even more potent than in the second attack of the basic combo, often throwing smaller enemies completely out of sight. It's good for hit-and-run attacks on enemies because of this range, damage and knock-back combo. A downside not unlike most other sword attacks, while a knight charges the attack, their movements will be slightly slower than usual. It's also important to remember keep in mind the far range but slow speed of this attack. Even when you learn to aim from the appropriate distance, keep in mind that by the time your attack hits your enemy may already have moved away.
