Ice Burst

Ice Burst requires a magic level of 70 and can do a maximum of 22 damage per spell. It will freeze the player's target and any targets standing on an adjacent square to your target, including diagonals. The targets will be unable to move for 10 seconds.

Ice Burst is the most common Ancient spell used in Castle Wars, due to its relative low cost compared with Ice Barrage, the lower level required, and the relatively large number of targets in small spaces, especially on crowded worlds. Also, rendering targets unable to move is very useful under almost all circumstances, especially killing players who are attempting to score and retrieving the player's own team flag.

Ice Burst is also a common spell in Pest Control games due to the many monsters stuck in places where they cannot move. This is considered a very effective way of training magic because Ice Burst can hit up to nine monsters at a time, doing as much as 198 damage per spell.
