Overview

The Bone Stomper is a hulking yeti with a large bulk and powerful abilities. It is highly intelligent and tries to use its icy spells instead of fiendishly clawing about. It is hard to keep distance from him, as it can rapidly close the distance and all of its abilities applies 5 to 10 stacks of Chill, reducing movement speed. Prolonged exposure to Chill results in getting Frozen.

The Stomper can use the following abilities:

• Stomp the ground in close range. This normal attack cannot chill and deals rather moderate Physical damage.
• Shriek with a freezing breath in close range AoE.
• Unleash bursts of ice and snow in a line. This attack has a long wind-up and ice bursts gradually rather than all at once.
• Take a leap in the air and somersault before coming crushing down with a large force. This is the gap closer ability of the Stomper, which is aimed in front of the player.
• Take an icy boulder from the ground and throw it at a target after careful aiming, splitting into three Frost Ichor enemies. This is a devastating ability, as it deals repeated contact damage in very short bursts, making it a potential one-hit-kill on most characters.

Guide

The Bone Stomper is fairly tricky to defeat if stamina is not conserved, as Chill stacks make it harder to escape. Thankfully, the Stomper's abilities have a considerable telegraph time, giving some reprieve. He's most vulnerable to damage after using an ability, but even with some effort, he is not hard to bring down without careful timing. Mind the boulder when he prepares to throw it.
