The caster bites the target, inflicting 7 Frost damage.

How it works

Its aura has a 20% chance to proc when its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. It triggers Frostbite.

What it does

Frostbite is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Frostbite (record #1265400).

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.
