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

  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -30. It applies the snared mechanic. Its area radius is 40 yards.

What it does

Frostbolt Volley is a Frost spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 200) in a 40 yard radius and applies an aura with the snared mechanic in a 40 yard radius.

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.
