*Fires an orb at target which can pierce it and any other target in its path. Orb applies no cold damage or cold length of its own but fires a bolt which does so in each frame of its 30 frame existence unless it hits an obstacle. Each bolt is [[size]] 1 and destroyed upon collision, so they only hit one target.

Each bolt is [[size]] 1 and destroyed upon collision, so they only hit one target.
*Upon expiring or hitting an obstacle, a nova of 16 bolts also applying cold damage and length is released. If this occurs when the orb is travelling through a target, that target can be hit by multiple bolts. {{Warn|=Although these bolts are also size 1 and destroyed on collision, and '''all''' can hit a single size 3 target, bolts may still be displayed (although they apply no cold damage or cold length).}}

The orb travels ~9 1/3 yards before expiring.]]

*When cast continuously, total cold damage (from a maximum of 46 bolts) can be multiplied by 30 / [[cast rate]] after the first orb has expired to calculate maximum potential cold damage per second. Cast rate is delay (1 second or 25 frames) plus action frame, so [[Sorceress#Cast rate|Sorceress cast rate]] is 25 + (4-7) or 29-32 frames, depending on [[Faster Cast Rate]].
