Poisson Pine
Past the Fourier Fir, a famous function waits at the sequence limit.
Residue... Resentment
Our snow and ice will not melt for a thousand autumns; our curse will be endless.
Lore
The Coldtrees encountered earlier now form a whole tree sequence. Past the Fourier Fir, the sequence converges on a famous function—the Poisson Pine. It appears we have reached a quadratic cold function; let us hope no one asks for ten iterations.
At the end, it says that your research buries their trees, and your clocks let their ice and snow pass away. Their snow and ice will not melt for a thousand autumns; their curse will be endless, endlessly difficult to sever. Compared with a normal zombie, it feels more like a piece of resentment left in the Sands of Time.
Mechanics
Role
Area miniboss · Cold-tree line core
- Appears as the boss at the end of the cold-tree line.
- Applies pressure through the tree line, tree summons, and field control.
- Version 0.17m strengthened Poisson Pine on high difficulties: shorter startup, shorter summon interval at low health, and a higher summon cap.
- Control active cold-tree count, save burst damage for exposed windows after landing, and avoid wasting damage into jumps or shell state.
