Tooltip

Increases the critical strike chance of your Icy Touch and Obliterate by 5% and casting Obliterate has a chance to reset the cooldown on Howling Blast and cause your next Howling Blast to consume no runes.

How it works

Its aura has a 5% chance to proc when its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 107. Its base value is 5. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. It triggers Freezing Fog.

What it does

Rime is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Freezing Fog.

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.
