Weaknesses come straight from the game data (they match the in-game board preview). The star ratings the preview shows for Strength / Intelligence / resistances aren't decoded yet, and attack patterns beyond the signature action aren't in the data at all — that's what the write-up below is for.

Mechanics

Ice Dragon Piece — possible triple-card fight.

Suggested trio: Mantis, Damselfly, Geshunpest — DPS, plus Scouring Ash borrowed up front for Frostbite.

Abilities

  • Icy Torment — icicles floating = sides cleaved, middle safe (stand on the boss); ice sucked in = middle cleaved, sides safe
  • Rime Wreath — circle with a cleansable DoT
  • Withering Eternity — DoT floor with two safe cardinal spots, then Sheet of Ice — six baited AoEs that drop slower than you expect
  • Cauterize — stores four half-arena cleaves, ends in a knockback; ice sprites spawn during it

How to handle it

Withering Eternity is the hard one: get to a safe cubby, then place the Sheet of Ice drops calmly. For Cauterize read the line telegraphs, finish where the knockback can’t wall you, and kill the sprites.
