The ice demon is a third-level creature, connected to the Necropolis in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. It can be purchased at the Ice gate external dwelling.
An ice demon attack has a chance of freezing an enemy for up to 2 turns. Ice demons are also immune to cold-based spells, and take half damage from cold-based attacks (such as those of water elementals and other ice demons).OffBck
Comments[]
The ice demon is a very useful creature in melee, with decent stats, and the freezing ability makes it even more dangerous - especially if it takes out a high-level hero, or a fourth-level creature.
The biggest weakness is its short movement in combat, allowing enemies to use ranged attacks or spells several times. Casting slow on it will make it easier to kill.
If you're using devils, summoning ice demons is extremely useful in large combats.
