Freezes enemies them in place. Damage may interrupt the freeze effect.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 50. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. Its area radius is 12 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It applies the rooted mechanic. Its area radius is 12 yards.

What it does

Frost Nova is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 50) in a 12 yard radius and applies an aura with the rooted mechanic in a 12 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.
