Ignite

Tooltip

Your target burns for over 4 sec of the total direct damage caused by your Fireball, Frostfire Bolt, Inferno Blast, Scorch, and Pyroblast. If this effect is reapplied, any remaining damage will be added to the new Ignite.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. It ticks every 2 sec, 2 times over the full 4 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Ignite is a Fire spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec and applies an aura.

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 36 separate Spell records named "Ignite". This page is record #12654. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
