The rimewyk's {{favilink id|Rimewyk_Bite}} can be lethal despite its low physical damage, as it deals a high amount of cold damage on hit, ignoring [[AV]]. This can make the rimewyk's attacks more dangerous to characters with low cold resistance, particularly those already vulnerable to attack from being frozen. | The rimewyk's {{favilink id|Rimewyk_Bite}} can be lethal despite its low physical damage, as it deals a high amount of cold damage on hit, ignoring [[AV]].

* You can escape being frozen by drinking heating liquids, such as {{favilink|asphalt}} or {{favilink|molten wax}}, | * You can escape being frozen by drinking heating liquids, such as {{favilink|asphalt}} or {{favilink|molten wax}}, detonating a {{favilink|thermal grenade}} from your inventory, or using {{favilink|pyrokinesis}} on yourself; none of these actions are restricted while frozen. It is possible but not preferred to escape freezing by using a {{favilink|blaze injector}} as the -50 cold resist penalty will make the rimewyk's subsequent attacks more lethal. | ||
* | * Having enough {{favilink|unshelled reptiles}} reputation lets you avoid fighting a rimewyk entirely. Due to its neutral demeanor, an indifferent or higher faction status is enough for this. {{favilink|Croccasins}} and items with the {{favilink|scaled}} mod are easy ways of doing this. | ||
* | * High enough levels of cold resist can let you easily endure the rimewyk's breath and attacks. Some possible early-mid game sources include items made of ape fur, the {{favilink|wooly}} item mod, an {{favilink|elastyne skull cap}}, or mutations such as {{favilink|carapace}} and {{favilink|thick fur}}. {{favilink|Freezing ray}} will also drastically lower the player's freezing temperature, though it will not reduce cold damage itself. | ||
