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
