Every 0.8 sec the target marks their current location. After 1.5 sec, the marked location explodes inflicting 40 Fire damage to all players.

In addition, the target is hit with Flaming Shrapnel causing them to suffer 1 Fire damage every 0.8 sec for 4 sec.

How it works

Cannon Barrage 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 0.8 sec, 5 times over the full 4 sec. It triggers Cannon Barrage.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 260.

What it does

Cannon Barrage is a Fire spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.8 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Cannon Barrage (record #258850).

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.
