Ice Storm sends a spinning cloud of ice slowly forward. It does 40 frost damage per second to Health and Stamina and grows as it travels, so it hits everything in a line. Its short range and slow speed make it awkward against moving targets.
Tips
Alchemists use it to freeze butterflies and dragonflies in mid-air so they drop to the ground.
