Blizzard is the Master frost spell in Destruction. It raises a swirling storm of ice around the caster that lasts 10 seconds. Everyone within 40 feet takes 20 points of frost damage per second, and their stamina drains too. The storm can hurt the caster and followers as well, so cast it away from allies.

Spell Tome

Blizzard is learned by reading Spell Tome: Blizzard. Faralda sells the tome.

Gameplay Tips

The wind picks up loose objects and flings them around, which hurts anyone nearby.
The Deep Freeze perk paralyzes enemies when their health runs low.
The Augmented Frost perk raises the damage by a quarter, and by half at the second rank.

Notes

Because of a bug, the caster's own frost resistance and magic resistance weaken the spell.
