Ice Storm

How it works

Ice Storm is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 149, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). Its area radius is 50000 yards. It triggers Ice Storm.

What it does

Ice Storm is a spell with an instant cast and an unlimited range. When cast it launches a missile in a 50000 yard radius. It also casts Ice Storm (record #87406).

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.
