I'm having real trouble completing the Coldburn level which is part of the Empire of Ice adventure pack in both Skylanders Giants and Spyro's Adventure on the 3DS.

Specifically the Avoid the Slicers challange.

Does anyone have any tips on this level and the suggestions on best charaters to use?

I'm trying to stay to the corners of the dry area but still struggling!

Lightning Rod is the specific best character for the challenge IMO. He can fire long range with huge damage and his glide is absurdly good. Just stay in the crevices, fire massive lightning bolts down often and there should be Radiance/Coins in no time, then just collect it using his gliding skills.
I use X attack to hit enemies and Y attack to hit chests, then I just glide over and collect the spoils of war. Now I can finish the level without him getting hit by them, effortlessly(and I actually forgot about Lightning Rod's effectiveness before I was retrying the challenge in Giants, which made it a pain ).

I did it on the SSA with warnado. since he can stay in the air for a bit so easier to stay on 1 spot.

I used a Giant, they move slow enough so you don't go slipping and sliding everywhere, and they can damage treasure boxes just by jumping on them.

On the original, I used Slam Bam due to his lumbering speed and power.

Thanks for your help everyone I've finally managed to finish the level on both Adventure and Giants using Lighting Rod and Whirlwind.

I agree Lightning Rod was the best charactor to use due to the way he hovers.

Thants it now 100% completion on both 3DS games. Now just need to wait till Giants Wii U!!!
