How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Hailstorm is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is 15.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 408. Its base value is 1. It triggers Frost Shock.

What it does

Hailstorm is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Frost Shock. It stacks up to 5 times.

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.
