Tooltip

Fires a jet of flame, burning all enemies in front of the caster within 30 yards, dealing 3770 to 4230 Fire damage every half-second for 3 sec. Additionally, the ground is scorched by this effect causing it to catch on fire, dealing 3016 to 3384 Fire damage every second to all enemies. Iron Constructs within this radius will begin to heat up, eventually becoming molten.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 6 times over the full 3 sec. It triggers Scorch.

What it does

Scorch is a Fire spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec. It also casts Scorch (record #63473).

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.
