Tooltip

Shoots a freezing arrow at an enemy, inflicting weapon damage. All damage inflicted is based upon Frost magic.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 100.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Frost Arrow.

What it does

Frost Arrow is a Frost spell with an instant cast and a range of 50 yards. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 100). It also casts Frost Arrow (record #35965).

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.
