Advanced Mini Information

Detailed overview at Advanced Mini Information

Available army bonus slots for the bottom row:

  • Alliance
  • Cycle
  • Flying
  • Melee
  • Ranged
  • Spell
  • Squad
  • Unbound
  • Undead

Without a Wildcard slot, Arthas cannot buff a Swole Troll that does not have Meatier Elbow.

Remorseless Winter:

  • Applies Frost to nearby enemies
  • Frost reduces both their attack and movement speed by 50%
  • 6.5 radius from Arthas
  • Note that this range means that most ranged minis will be shooting at Arthas from outside the Frost aura, if Arthas is fighting against a tank

Army of the Dead:

  • Periodically summons a Frosty Footman
  • Maximum of 2 Footmen at a time, per Arthas
  • Both are summoned immediately when you deploy Arthas
  • 10-second cooldown for each Footman, starts when summoned, so if they die after 10 seconds or more, Arthas immediately summons another

Soulshatter:

  • While deployed, Frosted enemies die instantly when taking any damage below 20% health
  • Does not apply to buildings, bosses, and mini-bosses
  • Global while Arthas is alive
  • Target needs to be hit while already under 20% health – mostly effective against big tanks because small minis often die to a hit while under 20% health anyway

Lichborne:

  • Nearby allied Alliance Minis summon stationary Skeleton Mages on death
  • Allied, so also works for your partners' minis in co-op, but only close to Arthas
  • 12 radius from Arthas
