Cryomancer is a support tower — its own tooltip calls it out as one — built around slowing enemies rather than dealing heavy direct damage. It deals zero direct damage at Levels 0-1, existing purely as a Slowdown source, before picking up a Chill damage-over-time tick at Level 2 and real gun damage from Level 3.

How to Get Cryomancer
Cryomancer is not currently obtainable. It was originally unlocked by triumphing Krampus Frosthold, then made available through a limited-time Robux gamepass (last known price 699 Robux) before being taken offsale.
Is Cryomancer Worth It?
As a pure support pick for existing owners, Cryomancer is best valued for its Slowdown utility and Lead detection from Level 0, not for its damage, which stays modest even at max level.

Best Loadouts With Cryomancer
Place near high-DPS towers to let Cryomancer's slow effect extend their damage window on fast enemies; back it up with Hidden and Flying detectors since it never gains either.
