Properties
Class Mage

Arctic Winds is a mage talent that increases all Frost damage done and reduces melee and ranged opponent's chance to hit by 1% per rank, up to 5% at rank 5.

Notes

This stacks with a similar talent in the Frost tree, [Piercing Ice], which also increases all Frost damage done by 2% per rank, up to 6%. The damage increase for this talent works the same, by including all spell damage gear the mage is wearing. Since it is a multiplicative increase, the combined effect of the talents combined is an increase of 11.3% to all frost damage (after the addition of +damage from items). With [Curse of the Elements] applied to the target this gives an effective increase of 22.43% (25.70% with 3/3 [Malediction]) to all frost damage.

This talent doesn't affect the damage numbers which show in the tooltips of your frost spells.
