Calls on the ancient cold lurking within the earth to emerge - violently. The force of its emergence blasts rock from the ceiling, smashing into the target with unavoidable force. The cold itself is brief but unbearably bitter, bypassing armour entirely as it freezes the target and their neighbours. It will always attempt to blast the largest concentration of foes in sight, and never explodes next to the caster.

Permafrost Eruption is a level 6 Ice Magic/Earth spell which targets the largest clump of enemies in your line of sight. It deals physical damage to the targeted square, and cold damage in a 3x3 area.
