Arthas calls forth a freezing storm of ice, reducing all players' movement speeds by 30% for 8 sec. During this time, icy comets crash into the ground, inflicting 30 Frost damage to players struck and knocking them back.

How it works

Remorseless Winter is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 8 times over the full 8 sec. It triggers Remorseless Winter.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 8 times over the full 8 sec. It triggers Remorseless Winter.

What it does

Remorseless Winter is a Frost spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec. It also casts Remorseless Winter (record #417350) and Remorseless Winter (record #417411).

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.
