* Stomps the ground, creating a huge shockwave around it.

** Also shoots cross bullets in every direction when enraged.
== Tactics ==
Focus on dodging and attacking, his attacks don't cover that much of the room. An easy way to kill this boss is to sneak and hide in the corners, and attack when there are close to no bullets. Be patient and use cover.
Take advantage of the boss's high mobility, and use weapons that have lingering bullets like Cherry Blossom or Bubble Gun.
It is always recommended that the player has some companions by their side as that would greatly ease the fight.
Keep the player's distance but don't just stick the player on the edge of the arena for the whole time, they can't make much progress on the boss if so.
Always be on the lookout for the large snowballs. Whenever the boss throws it, sprint away as fast as they can from the zone where they will hit. The player shouldn't get too near the large snowball when it is about to impact, as it will split into multiple small snowball projectiles and would be more difficult to avoid them.
Getting hit by multiple snowballs at once can easily wear the player out, when followed by an ice trail then it could deal more damage and possibly even kill them on the spot.
The ice trail is the deadliest move of the boss. As it is slow and leaves behind a long-lasting wall of damage, it would take up a huge space on the arena. Do not panic and just go full sprint until the ice trail gets near the player. Instead, when the trail is close to the player, dodge by moving forward diagonally.
Another way to dodge attacks is move in a "V" pattern to avoid some projectiles. When the player is moving to the direction of the bullet path, the bullet seems to slow down visually but when the player is running towards the bullet, the bullet seems to move faster on the screen, this will let them give some extra few milliseconds to make a good judgement. The player shouldn't be near the edges of the arena to do this.
