Battle[]
Each Icicle is always accompanied by four Evilheads. The Icicle will not attack the party if they do not attack it. It has a one-in-two chance of countering attacks with Icicle Drop. The Icicle is weak against Gravity.
If it is defeated before the Evilheads, the battle will end, and the player will not receive spoils from the Evilheads that are still alive. The Icicle has the longest "death animation" of an enemy, taking almost 12 seconds for its shatter animation to finish.
Strategy[]
Ribbons prevent the Evilheads from inflicting Silence. The player can use a summon or Aqualung to defeat all four Evilheads at once. Casting Demi2 or Laser will either instantly defeat it. or leave it with 1 HP. Beta will also instantly defeat it if the player's Magic is high enough.
