The Rimehound is a rare Pre-Hardmode enemy that spawns in the Snow biome. It charges and rams into the player at high speeds, although it is slow at turning around. When damaged to 50% / 70% / 90%
health, it will curl up into a ball and roll towards the player with increased maneuverability. It also inflicts the Bleeding debuff on contact. It gets significantly stronger after Cryogen has been defeated, with boosts to its damage, maximum life, and defense.
Trivia
- The
Bestiary entry for the Rimehound: "These hounds were bred and trained to survive in the tundra's hostile conditions by Yharim's forces, so that they may act as scouts. Most were simply abandoned by their masters out of either necessity or choice, and were resigned to roam forever without purpose."
- Rime is frost formed on cold objects by the rapid freezing of water vapor in cloud or fog.
- Internally, the gores for this enemy use its old name, Angry Dog, in their names.
