How to Freeze and Trap Mobs with Ice Dragon Spells

The Ice Dragon school excels at slowing down chaotic fights. Instead of relying on pure blast damage, its combat spells lock enemies in place so you can control crowds or escape dangerous ambushes.

Freezing Single Targets from Afar

Use Ice Dragon Charge when you need to stop a fast or hard-hitting enemy before it reaches you.

1. Equip a spellbook containing Ice Dragon Charge and line up a clear shot.

2. Cast the spell to fire an icy blast across the battlefield.

3. Connect with your target to freeze whatever the blast hits on impact, halting its approach so you can follow up with melee weapons or another spell.

Trapping Groups with Ground Ice Spikes

When multiple mobs surround you in caves, raids, or open plains, switch to the ground spike ability for area control.

1. Funnel chasing mobs into a narrow corridor or tight cluster.

2. Cast the Ice Dragon spike spell toward the group.

3. Watch giant spikes of ice erupt directly from the ground, trapping mobs in place while dealing elemental damage.

Once enemies are pinned by the giant ice spikes, step back out of melee reach and pick off trapped targets safely, or drink a healing potion while they cannot pursue you.
