Calls down a pillar of flame, burning all enemies in a selected area and inflicting additional damage every 1 sec. for 8 sec.

How it works

Flame Strike is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 115625. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 6 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 3000 per tick. Its area radius is 10 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 8 times over the full 8 sec (24000 base in total).

What it does

Flame Strike is a Fire spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 115625) in a 6 yard radius and leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 10 yard radius every 1 sec.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
