- "(No way!?) Is that a Frost Mystery?! It's been years since we've seen one! You just (not said in audio) HAVE to bring one back for me!"

Description
editThe Frost Mystery is a summoner 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 a low amount of health and fast speed. When killed, it will summon one random Bloated enemy. During the event, this was five enemies instead.
Logbook Description
edit"The Frost Mystery is considered one of the most terrifying creatures in the Frost Realm. It has an exoskeleton made of tough solid ice, while its insides contain water that cannot be frozen. According to legend, these beings are created from those who fall through frozen lakes and never resurface. The shadowy figure visible within is believed to be one of these unfortunate souls. It releases frost enemies with modifiers upon death."

Enemies Spawned
editIn Frost mode, the Frost Mystery summons in one enemy from a set list. These enemies are:

- Cold Mist (26.32% chance, 0.7 delay)

During the Operation I.C.E Event, the Frost Mystery summoned five random enemies from a set list, all with their own chances of being chosen. Additionally, all of them had random attributes applied to them, which also had their own odds of being chosen. It could summon the following enemies:
- Snowy (30% chance, 0.1 delay)
- Frozen (30% chance, 0.1 delay)
- Snow Minion (30% chance, 0.1 delay)
- Packed Ice (10% chance, 0.1 delay)
These could spawn with the following attributes:
- Nimble (35% chance)
- Bloated (35% chance)
- Health Regen (15% chance)
- Aggro (15% chance)
Strategy
edit- Early-game towers like the Golden Scout, Golden Soldier, Cowboy or Operator can be useful against it.
- As these spawn in hordes, AOE towers like the Rocketeer, Electroshocker or Archer can also be pretty effective.

Trivia
edit- The description in the Index for the Frost Mystery mentions that it is created when people fall through frozen lakes and never resurface. This is a reference to the original Outpost 32 map from the Frost Invasion Event, which had a lake which players could fall through.
- The Frost Mystery is unaffected by enemy appearance modifiers, such as Talk Like a Pirate Day.
