Ice Warrior FAQs

Below is some of the most frequently asked questions by players in osrs looking to kill Ice Warriors for the first time.

What are Ice Warriors weak to?

Ice Warriors are weak to fire spells and crush weapons. However, if you have relatively strong combat levels and gear they will be easy to kill with any attack style. They have very low defence levels in general.

Strategy for killing them

Bring strong melee armour if not using protection prayers as they are fairly accurate monsters. They are also highly aggressive, meaning they can be killed relatively afk with auto-retaliate. Although if you are a lower level you will need to pay careful attention to your hp/prayer levels to avoid death. Safe spots can also be useful if using range/mage.

Can you Safe Spot Ice Warriors?

Yes, the Ice Warriors can be safe spotted and it is easy to do. Particularly in areas such as the Asgardian Ice Dungeon where there are many boulders and rocks that can block the pathing of the Ice Warrior. This can be seen in the image below.
