How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 147. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 1 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 1 yards.

What it does

Flash Freeze is a Frost spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 147) in a 1 yard radius and applies an aura in a 1 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
