why not frostbolt expand?


If the caster targets near their Frostbolt projectiles, it will expand from a number of those projectiles instead

This is the description of the ice nova gem.


I'm curious why nothing goes when I linked ice nova with frostbolt.

I played coc ice nova assassin from 3.7 to now

I remember that it probably worked until last season.

I did an experiment at Standard.

So there is no problem in setting.

Should I report it to Bug Report Forum?

From Wikia

"

Frostbolt: The player may cast Frostbolt and subsequently cast Ice Nova from the Frostbolt projectiles. If Ice Nova is cast this way, it will have 20% less area of effect and it may cast on up to 2 Frostbolt projectiles. If Ice Nova would normally repeat (ie. if it was supported by Spell Echo Support and/or Greater Spell Echo Support) and is cast on Frostbolt projectiles, it will expand again from those projectiles after a short delay. This does not cause the player to repeat the casting animation.

Frostbolt and triggers: If the player has any active Frostbolt projectiles and Ice Nova is triggered by an effect (such as Cast On Critical Strike Support), Ice Nova will automatically be cast on the Frostbolt projectiles.


Welp, I leart something new. I thought that the Ice Nova from frostbolt only worked with self-casting while actually hovering over the Frostbolt Projectile

If that's the case, I expect a Cyclone - CoC - Ice Nova - Frostbolt should indeed work. Ice Nova wasn't reworked since 3.6
