Frost Breath

Tooltip

Inflicts Frost damage to enemies in a 70 yard cone in front of the caster. In addition, the targets are frozen for 2 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Frost Breath is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 70 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 450. Its area radius is 70 yards.

What it does

Frost Breath is a Frost spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 70 yard radius and deals Frost damage (base value 450) in a 70 yard radius.

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.
