How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec. It triggers Arcane Storm.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 285. It triggers Root Self.

What it does

Arcane Storm is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Arcane Storm (record #412815) and Root Self.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
