The frigid cold blows through, decreasing movement speed by 15% for 6 sec. is triggered when expires if player is not effected.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -15. Its area radius is 500 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 260. Its base value is -15. Its area radius is 500 yards.

What it does

Flash Freeze is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 500 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 500 yard radius.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
