How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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 2.1411. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It applies the rooted mechanic.

What it does

Frost Nova is a Frost spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 2.1411) and applies an aura with the rooted mechanic. The client files the whole spell under the rooted 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.
