Inflicts 49 to 58 Fire damage to enemies in a cone in front of the caster.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 49. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 12 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is -35. Its area radius is 12 yards.

What it does

Heat Wave is a Fire spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 49) in a 12 yard radius and applies an aura in a 12 yard radius.

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.
