Aided by the will of the North Winds, the Druid conjures up a chilling torrent of frost that incapacitates all caught within the frozen blast.

Stat Level

Minimum Cold Bit Damage (64*slvl) + 20 (72*slvl) - 44 (80*slvl) - 172 (96*slvl) - 524 (116*slvl) - 1084
Maximum Cold Bit Damage (64*slvl) + 96 76*slvl (84*slvl) - 128 (100*slvl) - 480 (124*slvl) - 1152


Stat Value
Minimum Mana to Cast 6
+% Cold Damage 15 * (Cyclone Armor.blvl+Hurricane.blvl)
Cold Length (Seconds) 3.4 + (0.6*slvl)
Range (Yards) [ (33 + (2*slvl) ) / 4] * 2/3
Damage Rate 41/1024 (~1/25)


  • Fires a stream of missiles applying cold damage and length for as long as the caster continues to cast. Cannot be cast while a Werewolf or Werebear.
  • Missiles pierce so they can damage multiple targets, but since they are size 1 they have a very narrow path. Aiming at a distant point rather than selecting a target is recommended to ensure path of missiles takes them through as many targets in between as possible.


Range increases by 2 yards every 6 skill levels.


  • Faster Cast Rate won't shorten the beginning or end of the cast animation: length is fixed.
  • 4 minimum mana to cast is displayed, but 6 mana is the minimum required to start casting.
  • Displayed cold damage per second is calculated based on bit damage being applied every frame (bit damage * 25/256), but actual cold damage per second is calculated based on bit damage being applied every other frame (bit damage * 25/512). [1] [2]
  • Since unit damage regeneration does not apply when as little as 1 bit (1/256 point) damage is applied in a frame, damage regeneration of units that are not Immune to Cold will be halved while fired upon. [3] [4]
