Frost
MageTooltip
Launches a Frozen Orb forward from the Mage's position, releasing Frostbolts that deal 1 Frost damage to all nearby enemy targets for 10 sec. Grants the Mage 1 charge of Fingers of Frost when it first reaches a target.
Targets damaged by the Frost Orb are slowed by 30% for 2 sec.
How it works
It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.
Frozen Orb is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -30. It applies the snared mechanic. Its area radius is 10 yards.
- Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1. It scales with 0.511 times spell power. Its area radius is 10 yards.
What it does
Frozen Orb is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the snared mechanic in a 10 yard radius and deals Frost damage (base value 1) in a 10 yard radius.
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.
