My Attempts And Experience On Ice Barrows Dungeon

So I beaten Ice Barrows solo(Idk if there's actually ppl helping, but I guess probably not) with only 45 level! I used mage class which is supposedly stronger for this dungeon tho

weapon: curse/eclipse, armour: avalanche/phosphene/seismic chips/ice climbing boots
Skill points:24/10/34/28/10 (modified by armour)

Before Entering:
Found a wild ice barrows key guardian at the entrance, Idk if it is the wynncraft wants me to have the following terrible experiences or for that I missed a Undergrowth Ruins key guardian in jungle (yeah, I go to jungle at like 41-44 levels, the monsters are not even hard but the key guardian nearly killed me so I gave up trying to get it)

First Try:
Room 1- waiting like years for Freezing Guards to spawn, and keep using up sprint
Room 2- afk at frozen soldier platform to read wiki and died

Second Try(luckily I got a free dungeon bomb)(featured content)
Room 1- Flashbacks of 1 second late for getting into the opened door that I contributed half of the tokens
Room 2- Managed to do the parkour fast and brutally blasted the frozen soldier into pieces for revenge
Room 3- Flashbacks of being infinity combo by the ice blcoks and snow blocks and the extremely deadly invisible mob
Room 4- Boing stuff honestly, Idk if keep pressing shift or not better
Room 5- Flashbacks of road getting blocked and snowballs spilling out nowhere randomly trying to assult me
Room 6- Flashbacks of not able to pick up mage's token and accidentally summon an extra wight
Boss Room- Flashbacks of being rapidly pulled and dodged and slowed by Theorick (he is even faster than the ex bosses in Ah Hat in Time)(and he reminds me of soul master/tyrant in Hollow Knight, I originally thought he is like broken or sealed vessel), and my 120-140/min heart rate. And I nearly got an heart attack cause the boss is suddenly defeated. And I have to pretend that nothing happened cause I was playing during online class.

Third and Fourth attempt:
Ez beat it, execpt nearly died at room 3



And I have to beat sand-swept tomb in some time, I hope Hashr isn't harder than Theorick cause last time I got killed in seconds. The dungeon mobs are easy as heck tho

________________________________

Technically it should be first try beat cause I didn't expected the frozen soldier respawning. Not even because of if I was weak

Wait I found this person:

I'm impressed

 

Salted like this.

________________________________

Blasphemy, trust me you wont regret this decision

 

Salted going at it again

blasphemy is a good option though I prefer Marius' prison as a level 40-50 manasteal chestplate (and it may be easier to get). Practically all of the expensive rewards are good ones, and if you feel like you want one, go on.

Hahsr is much easier, just don't get hit by his multihit in the third phase

 

It looks good, I originally thought bob's chestplate will be powerful but after checking at wiki it find out that it sucks.

But blasphemy costs 6-7 Theoricks' ice shard, I only have 1 shard and 2 keys left, and I don't want to do the dungeon 5 times more. It looks expensive on trade market too.

Also what wand should I go for, and is the sand-swept tomb "sprout" wand good? (-25 speed -25 spell damage but insane damage)(I could just place another wand in inventory to fire meteors)

And finally will the Winter's Essence legging's negative health regen kill me?

________________________________

Oh wow didn't noticed that

 

It won't kill, just leave on 1 hp. As mage you can easily counter it, but I do recommend getting items with positive regen while using it.

 

I have a wand that is +22 +9% health regen not enough. Also I often afk and I will be 1 health when back if not dead(wait that's impossible).
I got a pair of boots that gains Durum's journey tho, it adds +53 health but it -15% spell damage which is a shame, it has good xp bonus tho

 

Durum's journey can have up to 33 regen, so combine that with your wand and you should have positive regen. The negative spell damage shouldn't be too much of a problem.

If you still need more regen, you could try getting the Wynnter Scarf, it's a tanky level 40 helmet with +20hpr and +20%hpr.

 

mine has 26, should hopefully be ok

It require 48 level tho, need a bit of grinding level first

 

yeah seems good. Btw, it is recomenned to mainly level up via quests, as they are the main content of Wynncraft and have many useful rewards, and personally I think they're a (mostly) fun way to level up.

 

Yeah, I have done most of the quests that fits my level, only left squid village, ice nations, and I can't get in Bob's tomb as I need 2 other ppl

Also how can I view watched threads?

 

Dungeon feedbacks backup:
Fav: Lost Sancutary (yeah I'm the only one I guess)
Most hated: Ice Barrows (disclaimer: I think it is actually not that bad, I just have some bad memory/experience: https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/my-attempts-and-experience-on-ice-barrows-dungeon.275271/)



Ratings: [atmosphere/mechanics/balance/lore(background)/personal gameplay experience)] out of 10
DS- [5.75/7/7.5/5.5/6.75] (this harsh sewer and its lore isn't my cup of tea, but I admit it's levels are well made and the balance is good)

IP- [7.25/8/6.25/5/7] (like the parkour and close gate mechanics, its just spiders at room 1 a bit op while easy to be trolled)

LS- [9.25/6.5/6.25/7/8.5] (love the atmosphere a lot. For Garoth boss fight, despite the creepers' appearing do not making sense, is a brilliant mechanic. Mobs other than lizard seemed weak tho (in contrast purple lizard is deadly for those who don't have fire defence))

UC- [8/8.5/6.8/6.5/7.25] (this level introduced lots of cool mechanics, only things that can be complained is that monsters at room 1 seemed a bit slow and the boss is hard to understand for players who haven't played them)(I play this dungeon at a high level but I think its the same)

SST- [7/7/6.5/7.5/6.25] (I actually died to the boss and didn't succeed completing it, parkour with mirror is a bit confusing, but overall its good)

IB- [8/6.5/6.25/9.5/4.5] (pls buff room 1 token mobs spawning rate they spawn like after an entire month, room 4 being slightly unessecary, and room 5 snowballs scared me. But it does have good mechanics and atmosphere. The Theorick bossfight is very tough(not saying his stats but the frequency of his teleport and pull), I play as mage so I still get over it but for other classes I guess it will be extremely hard. The ice cave are well-toned and not lame, which is cool, but /i have a little suggestion: enlarge the holes from floor 5 to 6 and 6 to pre-boss chamber to make it more natural)

 

Wait compared to Undergrowth Ruins, ice barrows are so nice

The escort challenge + unimaginably hard parkour + idk why but there's like 4 slykaar slimes and they regen 1000 health if not hit for 3 seconds + finally defeated slykaar's slime form and he summons a crowd of 20-30 small slimes to instant kill me

 

Ib is pretty easy, especially as a mage since you can just tp when he pushes (It's easiest when you go water mage, as you can keep some mana sustain and enough meteors to kill him), and if you thought he was fast, you haven't seen antikythera yet lmao (You had 38 int so ig it was a bit of a challenge for you). Also criistal has a nice xp bonus, and Blasmephy has a really good MS boost which is suitable for spell steal/mixed mana.

 

pretty sure this dungeon's difficulty relies on which element ur weapon has. if its water ur gonna have a way harder time than if its earth (or thunder i forgot)
