How it works

Glacial Winds is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 2.3319.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26.

What it does

Glacial Winds is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 50 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 2.3319) and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the rooted mechanic.

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.
