A Cave In starts at this location, inflicting 3800 to 4200 damage every 1 sec.

How it works

Cave In is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 4. Its area radius is 6 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Cave In.

What it does

Cave In is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 6 yard radius. It also casts Cave In (record #87841).

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.
