Tooltip

Calls down a pillar of fire, burning all enemies within the area for 1 Fire damage and an additional 4 Fire damage over 8 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 1 per tick. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (4 base in total).

What it does

Flamestrike is a Fire spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 1) in an 8 yard radius and applies an aura in an 8 yard radius every 2 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.
