Frozen Tempest

How it works

Frozen Tempest is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its area radius is 500 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 500 yards. It triggers Frozen Tempest.

What it does

Frozen Tempest is a Frost spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 min. When cast it applies an aura in a 500 yard radius. It also casts Frozen Tempest (record #213131).

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.
