Burning Tar

How it works

  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 Burning Tar.

What it does

Burning Tar is a Fire 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. It also casts Burning Tar (record #254933).

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.
