Attacks[]
- Missile Barrage: The Frost Drone pulses red before firing a cluster of 12 RED ROCKETS at the player. These rockets linger in the air for a short duration before flying quickly and heavily tracking to the player's position. This attack deals ~7 Damage.
- In the Tower of Sisyphus, each level increases this attack's damage by ~10.
- Wave Beam: The Frost Drone pulses red and fires a RED BEAM at the floor. After a few seconds, 3 RED RINGS, which expand out until they dissipate, are created from the impact site. The Frost Drone will continue to fire the beam and create more RED RINGS until it loses sight of the player. This attack deals ~2 Damage if hit by RED BEAM, or ~4 Damage if hit by the RED RINGS.
- In the Tower of Sisyphus, each level increases this attack's damage by ~8 for the RED BEAM and ~9 for the RED RINGS.
- Kamikaze: When at low enough health, the Frost Drone has a chance to glow purple before barreling into the player, becoming a suicide bomb that explodes on impact. This attack deals ~7 Damage. If the Frost Drone enacts this attack, it being destroyed does not count as a kill for the player.
- In the Tower of Sisyphus, each level increases this attack's damage by ~9.

Trivia[]
- The differences between the Frost Drone and the Citadel Drone are more apparent than with some of the other enemy variants. While the Citadel Drone always looks partially broken and has some pieces of it missing, the Frost Drone always looks to be in good condition with all its parts intact.
