Icebox Trap

Ice Box Trap 1.png

This set piece can be found in any Biome, most often a Forest, and consists of a Chest spawned between a Thermal Measurer and an Ice Box.

The Chest itself contains an assortment of winter-related items, such as an Ice Staff, a Winter Hat, and a Breezy Vest. However, upon opening or Hammering the Chest (even if burnt), there is a 66% chance that Winter will immediately begin, accompanied by the roar of Deerclops (though he will not spawn). Setting the Chest on fire in Reign of Giants drops its loot, without activating the trap. A Krampus can also trigger the trap. It is safe to open or Hammer the Ice Box. Of note, Reign of Giants has an identical set piece found in the desert biome that activates summer instead of winter, and opening its Ice Box is NOT safe.

On trap activation, Wolfgang says 'Whoops.', Wendy will say 'Oh, goodness.', WX-78 will say 'IT'S A TRAP' Wigfrid will say 'Thats nöt a thing planned.', and the rest of the characters say 'Oops'. The trap can be found in both Sandbox Mode and Adventure Mode.

If the player finds an icebox trap, it can be used to their advantage by triggering it during winter (if the trap is triggered on the first day of winter, the players won't have to worry about a longer Winter), thus providing the player with the winter items without the negative effects of immediate winter.

If the player activates the trap while the season preset for the world is "Summer only", the resulting winter will be permanent until restart.

If the player activates the trap while in Adventure Mode, winter will still begin and Deerclops will spawn, but within 1 game day, seasons will revert to the preset for the current level. For example, if activated in A Cold Reception during summer, the player will have 1 day of winter, and then it'll return to summer the next morning. In an Adventure Mode chapter with no seasonal cycle such as Two Worlds the player may need to save, quit, and restart the game after one in-game day to revert the season.

In Reign of Giants, if the player starts in Spring; since Summer is a lot more difficult to survive than Winter, especially without ice to craft the best items to aid survival which melts easily during Spring, another good trick is to change the Summer to Winter with this set piece to delay the season for until the player has ice for a better chance at surviving the Summer by using ice based items.

The screenshot shows WX with one of available to WX DST skins applied to them.

So this was most likely taken in DST.

 

There are skin mods in DS AFAIK, or they just recreated the setpiece for the meme.

you can simply edit the set piece file to re-activate the set piece and how often it appears. Is set as a commentary to diseable it

When I first started playing DST in 2016, I found this trap. Maybe it was deleted

at the very beginning they were still in the game but klei diseable it because of pubs

klei goadly almost never deletes content from the files so people can mod it like how old farms and adventure mode biomes still in the files

Meme is really funny and true lmao, but that aside if we remove the wilson head from the final phase we get a really cool shadow aligned looking entity. Really eerie. Hope we can get something like that in the future.
