Sleet Storm creates a storm around the caster which deals Frost Damage and reduces the Movement Speed of all enemies in range, while reducing the damage taken by you and your allies. This storm moves with the caster and lasts for 8 seconds. The Northern Storm morph increases your Weapon and Spell Damage after casting, while the Permafrost morph increases the duration, reduces enemies movement speed even further and applies the Chilled status effect to them each tick.

NotesEdit

• Northern Storm is a recommended morph for the Beast Caller build, while Permafrost is recommended for Guardian of the Wild.

Patch NotesEdit

5.0.5

• Reduced the potency of the snare from this ability and its morphs to 40% from 70%.

5.2.5

• Northern Storm (morph):
  • The Max Magicka granted from this morph is no longer enabled passively by slotting. Instead, it is granted for 30 seconds after activating the Ultimate.
  • Increased the amount of Magicka granted to 9% from 8%.
  • This morph now ranks up in 2% Max Magicka granted per rank, up to 15% at Rank I, rather than 1.1% damage done per rank.
• Permafrost (morph):
  • This morph no longer stuns enemies who are hit multiple times by the effect, but instead increases the duration of the ability by 1 second per rank, up to 12 seconds at Rank IV.
  • Increased the snare potency to 70%, up from 40%.
  • Each tick of damage now applies the Chilled status effect to enemies hit.
  • Reduced the damage done of this morph by 50% to ensure this morph functions primarily as a utility and defensive morph.

8.0.5

• Northern Storm (morph): This morph now grants 300 Weapon and Spell Damage for up to 30 seconds after casting, rather than up to 15% Max Magicka for 30 seconds. This should help the Ultimate be more impactful across play styles.
