Usage Strategies
Gather as large a mob as you can, then cast Icy Evanesence while they're all beating on you. If this is done well, each monster will be damaged by several of the damage points/ice spike, thus giving much increased damage, chance to freeze/slow, etc.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Useful against very large mobs that aren't moving (ie, they're in melee range of you)
- Ice resist reduction could be useful when paired up with an ice High Elf
Cons
- Very low damage
- Very low damage increase per level
- 15 second cooldown (not modified by Concentration, Source Warden Focus or Stamina) in addition to the regen
- If a monster moves off the damage point/ice spike, it won't take any damage Uncertain about this, the damage points seem to add spikes of damage beyond the fixed DPS. The aura deals DPS and the points deal additional spikes of damage I believe (Will test further soon) - Zinsho
