{{U|=This is the most effective offensive spell that this discipline has to offer. With the invocation of this spell, entire hordes of enemies are left chilled or dead, drowned in a hail of ice. Wretched survivors of this wintry storm can do little but crawl and lament their fallen kin before they, too, succumb to the cold.}}

*An ice shard falls every four frames (0.16 second) within radius of the target for duration of blizzard. Although this means each blizzard rains down 25 shards in a somewhat random pattern, when a stationary [[size]] 3 target is selected only 4 of these shards will normally hit it; when a stationary size 2 target is selected only 3 of these shards will normally hit it.
*Shards are size 2, so a single shard can hit multiple targets.

[[File:Blizzard.png|center|frame|Although this [[Sorceress]] has cast a blizzard upon herself, it can be cast anywhere in line of sight on screen.]]

*When cast continuously, multiply cold damage by (shards * duration) / [[cast rate]] to calculate maximum cold damage per second after the first blizzard has expired. Cast rate is delay (1.8 seconds or 45 frames) plus action frame, so [[Sorceress#Cast rate|Sorceress cast rate]] is 45 + (4-7) or 49-52 frames, depending on [[Faster Cast Rate]]. For example, against a stationary size 3 target maximum cold damage per second after 4 seconds (100 frames) for a Sorceress with 50 frame cast rate (63-199 FCR) would normally be cold damage multiplied by (4 * 100) / 50, or 8.
