Absolute Zero

How it works

Absolute Zero is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.5 sec. It triggers Absolute Zero.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.

What it does

Absolute Zero is a Frost spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Absolute Zero (record #78206).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
