Start a frozen onslaught that strikes twice, unleashing the chilling essence of winter, dealing (72% of Attack Power) Frost damage to all enemies caught in its wake with each strike.

How it works

Each cast of Frostbane costs 35 Runic Power. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Frostbane is built from 5 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Frostbane.
  3. Effect 3 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  4. Effect 4 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Frostbane.
  5. Effect 5 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Frostbane.

What it does

Frostbane is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 0.8 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Frostbane (record #1229310), Frostbane (record #1229279) and Frostbane (record #1228436).
