Snowman

Snowman shows the same tooltip in WoW Forever as in Classic Era, but behind it the client changed effect parameters the tooltip never prints on 1 of its 2 effects, and moved internal columns the tooltip does not show (baseLevel 1 to 0). The client does not say what that changes in play. 1.5 sec cast. It is the Use effect of a Junk item the client lists without its name or tooltip.
