Ice Totem

Ice Totem

The Ice Totem is a unique non-player character (NPC) found within the world of Gielinor in Old School RuneScape (OSRS). This mysterious entity plays a crucial role in the activities associated with the Wintertodt, a formidable and high-reward boss located within the chilly region of the Wintertodt Camp.

Location

You can find the Ice Totem near the Wintertodt in the frozen north of Gielinor. It is specifically located within the confines of the Wintertodt’s area where various other components of the fight occur. Adventurers venturing near this location will inevitably encounter the Ice Totem during their skirmishes with the Wintertodt.

Appearance

The Ice Totem is visually striking, resembling a large totem covered in ice and snow. Its frosty aura gives it an ethereal presence, making it stand out amidst the backdrop of the snowy terrain. The totem is adorned with intricate frost patterns that reflect its icy theme.

Role and Mechanics

In the context of the Wintertodt encounter, the Ice Totem serves several important functions:

  • Health Restoration: The Ice Totem has the ability to restore health to the Wintertodt, significantly increasing the challenge faced by players. Adventurers must prioritize destroying the Ice Totem to effectively weaken their opponent.
  • Spawning: It appears periodically throughout the Wintertodt fight, meaning players must remain vigilant to spot and destroy it as it emerges from the snow. Its reappearance is tied to the Wintertodt’s health phase.
  • Resistance: The Ice Totem can absorb a certain amount of damage before being destroyed, requiring players to coordinate their attacks effectively to ensure its swift demise.

Combat

To defeat the Ice Totem, players should come equipped with a melee or ranged weapon. Group tactics often work best, as many players can contribute damage quickly. However, timing and coordination are crucial, as players should also manage their attention on the Wintertodt to avoid losing focus on the ongoing fight.

Upon its destruction, the Ice Totem dissipates into the icy air, and the Wintertodt’s power diminishes. Quick and effective coordination to eliminate the Ice Totem is essential for progressing through the Wintertodt fight and achieving victory against this frigid foe.

Rewards

While the Ice Totem itself does not drop loot upon destruction, successfully managing to defeat the Wintertodt, coupled with strategic removal of the Ice Totem, leads to better rewards for players at the end of the encounter. Players can receive a variety of unique items, including the much sought-after Wintertodt’s supplies, as well as XP in various skills based on their contributions during the battle.
