Klyssus the Ice Golem can be one of the longer dungeons in Raid: Shadow Legends due to the minions that he can respawn after he unleashes his powerful AoE attack. The Ice golem is seen as an annoying boss to deal with that requires full preparation including steady damage and survivability to defeat him.

Strategy
There are a few strategies to tackle Ice Golem’s Peak.
- Strategy 1: The most primary strategy is to bring in Block Revive champions in order to prevent Klyssus’ minions from reviving. For best results, the player’s champions be strong enough to deal enough damage to successfully defeat the minions in 1 hit. This will enable the Block Revive to take effect and make sure they don’t come back.
- Strategy 2: The second strategy is to use the Poison debuff to decreases Klyssus’ HP whenever it reaches his turn. This is because his passive skill does not activate if the damage is done by Poison or any other sort of HP Burn effect that causes his HP to drop below a certain threshold. Because of this, the rest of the team can avoid the extra damage from Klyssus passive skill. One major thing to avoid is dealing TOO MUCH damage to the boss itself, because that can trigger his Frigid Vengeance passive and heavily damage the rest of the team. Even if it does not defeat the player’s team, he will still end up freezing them (provided his minions are alive).
- Strategy 3: The third strategy is to have champions with long-lasting sustain abilities with massive AoE healing, Revive, Remove Debuff and Ally Protection while the rest of the champions keep the minions occupied with Stun, Freeze, Provoke or Fear. To maintain a completion time of 3 minutes, having at least one champion who can inflict Decrease Defense debuff and one champion who can buff allies with an Increase Attack buff as well as an Increase Speed buff to enable your damage-dealing champions to attack for multiple turns before the enemies get a chance.
If all of these strategies are in place, Klyssus the Ice Golem should not pose as much of a threat as he normally would. Happy hunting!
