Frostbolt Volley

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 3 sec after it is cast. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30. Its area radius is 50 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 30. Its area radius is 50 yards.

What it does

Frostbolt Volley is a Frost spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 13 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 30) in a 50 yard radius and applies an aura in a 50 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.
