How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its base value is 62464.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 1 sec, 300 times over the full 5 min.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26.

What it does

Flash Freeze is a Frost spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 5 min. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 1 sec.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
