How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 60.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 33. It applies the snared mechanic.

What it does

Frost Blast is a Frost spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 60 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 60) and applies an aura with the snared 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.
