Frost Strike

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -30. It applies the snared mechanic.

What it does

Frost Strike is a Frost spell with a 0.5 sec cast, a range of 10 yards, a 3 sec cooldown and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 30) 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.
