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. A single click results in a 15 frame animation; missiles start firing in the eleventh frame, so after casting continuously there will be four frames before the next action can be initiated. [1] 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). [2] [3] Since 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.
