Oh, it wasn't quite comfortable to go around with such a chain, and it is cold as hell, ice hell.

—Weapon's description in Gallery

The Necklace of the Ice King, commonly abbreviated as the "Necklace", "Ice King", or "NOTIK", is a Special weapon introduced in the 15.7.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time during the Christmas holidays in the Armory and in the Trader's Van. It is one of the many weapons used for Three Category Spam, and is a very popular choice amongst higher level players.

Description

It is a blue "necklace" that shoots a blue ghost-like or ice particle with instant bullet travel time. It deals a great amount of damage, a slow fire rate, a low capacity, and a slow mobility of 50, It is usually a 1-2 shot, with a small AreaDamage splash.

Appearance

Its appearance looks somewhat similar compared to Soulstone, but it has an ice beard and cyan horns. It is mainly a light blue color with light cyan eyes and aqua green details, with a handle in the shape of a bone. Despite being labelled a "necklace", there is no chain typical of its namesake. When the player holds it, the hand is raised and every shot, the player's hand backs up. The handle is a light blue bone, adding a bit of a primal theme to this weapon.

Performance

Despite it being claimed as a necklace, the player holds it just like how they hold the Soulstone. This weapon fires a blue laser-like projectile with AreaDamage and instant bullet travel time.

Like the Ghost Lantern and the Soulstone, it doesn't have a reload animation. After every shot, the weapon's mouth opens to charge the shot, then closes.

Strategy

Tips

  • Don’t use against opponents while in the air as you will most likely miss. Instead, try to aim toward the ground in front or next to them unless you have good aim.
  • This weapon has a small AreaDamage attribute, meaning that you can eliminate multiple players in the area in a single shot. Use this to your advantage in tight areas where many players go to, such as the hallway in Classic Pool or Silent School.
  • Since its aim is not very accurate in long ranges and is not a precise shot, use this only in medium to close ranges.
  • This weapon also doesn't have any delay when switching weapons, meaning that it can be used for Three Category Spam.

Counters

  • Fire at them from far with some weapon that has reliable accuracy and Scoped such as Secret Forces Rifle or other Primaries or Snipers.
  • Flank its user(s) if possible, the Necklace is more than capable for long ranges and it will be significantly harder to fight them if you're in their line of sight.
  • Use a powerful Heavy weapon such as the Christmas Ultimatum to quickly eliminate its users, if you are close enough.
  • Also, a Shotgun can be used to counter these users, such as the Viking or Acid Shotgun.
  • Powerful backups like the Exterminator, Sparkling Horn, or Thunderer can do massive damage.
