Immediately resets the cooldown of your Ice Block,
Arcane Presence of Mind
Fire Dragon's Breath
Frost Cone of Cold
and Frost Nova spells, and heals you for 22% of your maximum health. Usable during most loss of control effects, and unaffected by global cooldown.
Cold Snap is a magetalent available at level 60. It resets the cooldowns of select spells. It is an instant-cast ability that requires no mana. In PvP, Cold Snap is most commonly used as an emergency or defensive spell, allowing immediate use of Ice Block and Frost Nova.
Notes[]
Cold Snap does not get locked out by counterspell interrupts when the Frost school is interrupted.
Cold Snap will reset the cooldowns as long as the mage is not also silenced. This can be useful in emergencies, where the frost school is locked and the mage needs to Ice Block or use another frost escape.
