Attack Styles: The Darkfrost Guard utilizes melee attacks, often wielding a frost-infused sword that allows them to deal extra damage with ice-based attacks.

Location: The Darkfrost Guard can be found near the entrance of the Darkfrost fortress, which is located in the northwestern part of the Wilderness, just south of the Ice Plateau. They are typically positioned at the gates, making it difficult for unauthorized players to enter the fortress.

Appearance: The Darkfrost Guard stands tall, clad in heavy armor adorned with icy blue accents. Their helmet features a jagged design resembling icicles, and their breath emits a chilling mist, indicative of their frost powers. The guard’s armor is notoriously difficult to penetrate, reflecting the cold and harsh environment they inhabit.

Drops: Upon defeating a Darkfrost Guard, players have the chance to receive various rewards, including:

  • Frost shards (used to craft ice-based potions)

  • Icy weapons (weapons imbued with frost, providing bonus damage against fire-based enemies)

Behavior: The Darkfrost Guard exhibits a high level of aggression towards players who attempt to trespass into their territory. They are known to form groups with other guards, swooping in to ambush players who venture too close. Their combat strategy involves using ice magic to slow down opponents, making it challenging for players to escape once engaged.

Quests: The Darkfrost Guards are integral to the quest titled “Shadows of the Frost,” where players must infiltrate the fortress to uncover the secrets of the cult. Players will need to devise strategies to distract or defeat the guards in order to progress through the quest.

Trivia: The Darkfrost Guards are rumored to be the reincarnated spirits of ancient warriors who fell in battle during the Winter Wars. Their loyalty to the fortress and the cult is fueled by the dark magic that binds them to the icy realm.
