}} It causes [[creature]]s in the hexes surrounding the target hex to receive damage.

This spell is most useful either as typical AoE if stronger options are unavailable or to give your surrounded single-hex stack some breathing room. [[Psychic Elemental and Magic Elemental|Psychic and Magic Elementals]] and [[Devil and Arch Devil|Devils]] are some of the units that do well with such tactics.

As it is frost-based, many fire-immune creatures will take damage from this spell. [[Fire Elemental and Energy Elemental|Fire and Energy Elementals]] are vulnerable to it, taking double damage.

[[Protection from Water]] greatly reduces damage of Frost Ring, especially when cast with Expert [[Water Magic]].

Keep in mind this spell will damage stacks occupying all 6 hexes apart from the central one, unless they are [[Dragon|immune to magic]], [[Water Elemental and Ice Elemental|immune to]] [[Nymph and Oceanid|this spell]], or [[Golem|resistant to magic damage]]. Take care not to hit your own troops if they are not protected in some way. Army boasting such troops can use Frost Ring more aggressively.
