Required Level: 6

Prerequisites: None
Synergies: Arctic Blast is boosted by:

Details: This spell functions like a freezing Inferno, a sort of icy flamethrower that chills and damages anything it strikes.

The Druid can cast this for as long as he likes, pivoting and aiming it after the cursor, just as the Sorceress can with the Inferno skill. The chill time is quite long, so flashing targets with this will keep them slowed for a good duration. (Note, actual damage is 1/3 listed damage.)
