Lightning Charge

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. Its base value is 1 per tick. Its area radius is 10 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 30 times over the full 30 sec (30 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 33. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Lightning Charge is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius every 1 sec and applies an aura in a 10 yard radius. It stacks up to 3 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70531. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
