While the Ice Caves is Bravery And Greed's first dungeon, its boss is no piece of cake. For instance, it took us multiple playthroughs and a beginner-friendly arcana to defeat them. So, what makes the boss of this frozen dungeon so intimidating?

The Ice Caves boss, a yeti, combines fast rushdown attacks with tricky long-range traps. However, they're also incredibly readable. Therefore, if you enter the boss's layer with enough potions and gear, defeating them takes minutes.

Where Is The Ice Caves Boss?

The Rogue and Nalun enter the Ice Caves Boss Lair during a run of Bravery And Greed.

Bravery And Greed has randomly generated dungeons. Therefore, you can't expect the Ice Caves' boss to be in the same place every playthrough. However, you'll find boss areas behind a large door near the dungeon's end.

However, before you enter the boss's lair, we recommend you explore as much of the dungeon as possible. Doing so will lead you to new power-ups, gear, and potions from treasure chests and shrines. All of these prizes will give you an edge in the final battle.

Tips For Defeating The Ice Caves Boss

The Rogue takes down Frostfang, who emits an ancient rune, during a run of Bravery And Greed.

The Ice Caves Boss is a giant, imposing Yeti named Frostfang with fast charges and powerful physical attacks. However, if you look out for the Yeti's various tells, you'll easily read their actions and defeat them. So get ready to dodge a lot and make a plan of attack whenever you see an opening.

When The Yeti Flashes, It's Going To Tackle You

Frostfang glows red after a tackle attempt in Bravery And Greed.

One of the Yeti's most damaging attacks is a ground tackle that knocks out tons of HP. You'll know the tackle is coming when the Yeti starts flashing colors. However, you'll barely have a second to respond. So, when you see that Yeti flashing, quickly dodge to escape its grasp.

Red Circle Markings Indicate Where Icicles Will Drop

The Rogue avoids falling icicle targets during a boss battle in the Ice Caves in Bravery And Greed.

During the battle, the Yeti will periodically pound its chest, causing icicles to fall from above. When this occurs, look out for swirling red circles on the ground. These markings indicate where the icicles will land. Once you know where the icicles will fall, position your character out of the red circles' way.

Ranged Weapons Are Key To Defeating The Yeti

The Rogue and their follower keep their distance from Frostfang in Bravery And Greed.

Since the Yeti is a powerful and fast-moving boss, attacking from a distance is your best chance of survival. Thankfully, most of Bravery And Greed's classes have long-range weapons. For instance, the Rogue has a bow-and-arrow, the Amazon has a Chakram, and the Wizard can use energy balls or summon an Elemental.

If you continue to attack the Yeti with long-range weapons, you can chip away at their health while staying out of harm's way. A valuable time to attack is when the Yeti pounds its chest. As long as you are out of the icicles' reach, you can quickly attack the Yeti without blowback.

Of course, the Warrior is the only class without long-range techniques. In this case, you must use this class's defensive skills to your advantage. The Warrior has several shield skills that allow them to move with coverage, such as Shield Dash and Step Back. Plus, the Warrior can parry, allowing them to deflect icicles while approaching the Yeti. Finally, the Warrior can use their shield to block, thus closing the distance from the Yeti without dodging.
