So that's what they were. I knew I saw something flying over a building in the photos! Why do they seem so...sad?

Description

The Crying Angel is a Flying enemy that appears in the Frost mode. Like most of that mode's enemies, it first appeared in the Operation I.C.E Event. It has low health though it moves quite fast. As it is a Flying enemy, only towers and units with flying detection can target it.

Logbook Description

"The Crying Angel is a follower of the Frost Spirit. It is created when devoted members of the Frost Army undergoes handpicked transformation. Through the Frost Spirit's will, any creature can become one of these aerial beings adorned with chains, wings, and the Follower’s Halo. These transformed creatures now circle above the Frost Spirit's cathedral-like castle, tirelessly waiting for their next orders."

Appearance

CurrentVersion 1

The Crying Angel is an entity with a light blue skin, white torso and white legs. It has two light blue wings connected to its torso with grey chains, which are wrapped around its torso. It also had a light blue spiked halo floating above its head, which is the Follower's Halo.

The Crying Angel was entirely made out of translucent blue ice. Its torso and legs were darker than its head and arms. It had two light blue wings connected to its torso with blue chains, which were wrapped around its torso. It also had a light blue spiked halo floating above its head.

Strategy

• Towers with flying detection, like the Golden Soldier, Crook Boss, Ranger, Operator and Mercenary Base's Rifleman are recommended against this.
  • Due to it generally spawning in groups, AOE towers with flying detection like the Mortar and Tesla can be used to take out multiple at once.
