Chilldrake

Chilldrake is an enemy encountered in Section 3 - Hell's Forest throughout Desolate Snowdin.

He will start the battle in the Hostile state.

When getting close enough, it will quickly run towards Kris to initiate a battle, unless he was already killed twice (or once in Snowdrake's room) in which he will instead run away.

Attacks

• Various crescent-shaped projectiles will come out from the Bullet Board's walls, flying in straight lines.
• Various lines composed of 8 crescent-shaped projectiles will appear from one of the Bullet Board's walls and fly towards the SOUL, constantly tracking it and speeding up while getting in close proximity; after passing by, they will make a wide "U" turn to begin another assault. Up to 3 lines can appear at the same time, each one taking 3 seconds to spawn after the previous one.

Mercy

Chilldrake can be spared after filling his MERCY bar to 100% full, lowering his HP low enough or using Sleep Mist when he's TIRED. Lowering his HP to around 25% will also remove his Hostile state.

When using IceShock onto Chilldrake, it will silently increase his MERCY bar by 50%, as well as removing his Hostile state on the second cast. This is the fastest way to spare him.

The following ACTs and their effects are:

• Clash will remove Chilldrake's Hostile state if used after one of his threats, while it will make him TIRED if used when he's not Hostile. It requires Susie's turn.
• Agree will increase Chilldrake's MERCY bar by 100%, and it will spare him if used a second time. It has no effect when he's Hostile. It requires Susie and Noelle's turns.
• Joke will increase Chilldrake's MERCY bar by 10%. It has no effect when he's Hostile.
• N-Action will increase Snowdrake's MERCY bar by 30% It has no effect when he's Hostile.
  • S-Action has no effects besides different flavor texts depending if it's used while Chilldrake is Hostile or not.

Strategy

Like most enemies in Section 3, Chilldrake in battle will start as Hostile, which will make him unable to have his MERCY bar filled by using ACTs until said state is removed. The most efficient way to do is by selecting Clash after one of his various aggressive puns, then Agree to make him sparable. You must wait a turn first before using Clash.

Alternatively, Chilldrake has an unique interaction with Noelle's IceShock, taking drastically reduced damaged by it, but silently increasing his MERCY bar by 50%, as well as removing his Hostile state on the second cast; this can allow you to spare Chilldrake in just 2 turns, casting IceShock in the first one, then again on the second while sparing with either Kris or Susie.

If a party member is down and you can't get them up with items or spells, you'll have to resort to using N-Action, IceShock, the Joke ACT, or damaging him enough until he's sparable, depending on who's still standing and how much progress you've made in the battle already.

Trivia

• Just like his appearance, Chilldrake's encounter is essentially identical to Snowdrake's, with the only differences being the ACTs, quotes, flavor text, and the amount of MERCY gained by using the Joke ACT.
• Chilldrake replaces all Snowdrake encounters after Snowdrake is defeated once; however, since the first encounter with Snowdrake is forced, this can't be seen in-game unless the player is using cheats or Test Mode.
