Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
I'd like everyone possible with access to a parse to paste damage values of a single Frigid Gift AA5 + Iceshape raid invocation in your group. I'm at work atm so I can't do it for myself just yet. Please format it like this (player names not necessary):
Class1: dmg
Class2: dmg
Class3: dmg
Class4: dmg
Class5: dmg
Class6: dmg
Total: dmg
I'm more interested in demonstrating what this spell pair can do, and less in critiquing people who didn't spam fast-casts in one instance or the other.
People need to know why you're considered a retard (i.e. bad wizard) if you don't cast this spell pair regularly.

Re: Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
Group1:
Illusionist: 177376(264 procs)
Conjuror(Mage Pet): 226312(471 procs)
Troubador: 100600(241 procs)
Wizard(Time Compression, Robe of Al'Kabor): 93697(172 procs)
Brigand: 5391(13 procs)
Inquisitor: 8659(18 procs)
Total: 612035
Group4:
Troubador: 52548(108 procs)
Warlock(Propogation): 80933(143 procs)
Wizard(Robe of Al'Kabor): 75783(122 procs)
Necromancer(Mage Pet): 160415(327 procs)
Fury: 51175(88 procs)
Assassin: 1136(2 procs)
Total: 421990
The Illusionist in your group demands Ice Lash as much as possible as you can see why :P
This is from an IS parse, whole zone, including courtesans and chaperons. 42:29 in combat, total of 01:06:07 from the first engage to the death of Mayong.

Re: Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
This is a rushed lookup from a single cast:
illusionist 5678
wizard 3176
fury 3093
warlock 2353
troub 2201
necro 4339
----
total 20840
Basically Frigid Gift AA5 + Iceshape is like an Ice Nova or Fusion crit, except it gets credited to your group and not yourself.

Re: Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
could you imagine the aggro issues if Frigid gift counted for a wizards dps... expecially on those AOE fights...

Re: Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
It doesn't hurt the Ranger doing 3K+, it won't hurt us in the least. He's got a built-in 40% de-hate, but he's not grouped with the troub that is giving me the 40% de-hate.

Questions:
- The proc sounds like 100% chance based on the "effect" description. But it doesn't proc 100% of the time.
- Does anyone know the apporx. proc %?

Yes it does. It procs 100% of the time as long as you don't cast a Heat-based spell without Iceshape up.

User error?

Could you find a grey mob, cast iceshape, frigid gift, ball of lava, and show us the log for it?
'Cause I have no idea what could be going wrong there.

Re: Exactly how powerful is Frigid Gift 5 + Iceshape?
I'll work on it....
I'm in game now...am not using a macro...
- Cast Iceshape
- Cast Frigid Gift
- Cast Ball of Lava
#1 YOUR Ball of Lava hits a darkclaw crab for 3672 cold damage.
#2 YOUR Ball of Lava hits a darkclaw crab for 3467 cold damage. YOUR Ice Lash hits a darkclaw crab for 294 cold damage.
#3 YOUR Ball of Lava critically hits a darkclaw crab for 4030 cold damage.
#3a YOUR Sunstrike hits a darkclaw crab for 1065 cold damage.
#4 YOUR Ball of Lava critically hits a darkclaw crab for 4030 cold damage.
Note:
I've confirmed, visually, these buffs are both up. So it seems from 5 casts, Ice Lash proc'd once?
