How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 975 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (4875 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -5.

What it does

Frostbite is a Frost spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec and applies an aura. It stacks up to 100 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70531. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
