Lore Description

Explosive Ghostflame Effect

Explosive Ghostflame is a sorcery spell that allows one to strike the ground with the staff to trigger an explosion of ghostflame that can inflict frostbite. The flame from the explosion also spreads in the surrounding area, inflicting damage over time.

The spell has a relatively slow casting time and can get you killed if you don't use it at the right time. Consider using spirit ashes to distract your foes from interrupting your cast.
