How it works

Icy Ground is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 18.5356 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 20 times over the full 20 sec (370.71 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 20 times over the full 20 sec. It triggers Icy Ground.

What it does

Icy Ground 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 every 1 sec. It also casts Icy Ground (record #139922).

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.
