How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 2700 per tick. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 3 sec, 5 times over the full 15 sec (13500 base in total).

What it does

Cave In is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius every 3 sec.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70268. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
