Frost spell for Death Knights.

Frostbane

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Frostbane is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Frostbane.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Frostbane.

What it does

Frostbane is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Frostbane (record #1229310) and Frostbane (record #1229520).

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.
