Breathes a gout of flame at enemies within 20 yards in front of the caster, inflicting 15 Fire damage. Targets caught in the flames suffer 5 Fire damage every 1 sec and are confused for 5 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Breath of Fire is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 15. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5 per tick. Its area radius is 20 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (25 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5. It applies the disoriented mechanic. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Breath of Fire is a Fire spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 45 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 15) in a 20 yard radius, applies an aura in a 20 yard radius every 1 sec and applies an aura with the disoriented mechanic in a 20 yard radius.

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.
