How it works

Cannonball is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Jump to Destination (effect type 42). It triggers Cannonball.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers spell id 52477.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Cannonball is a spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it makes the caster jump to a location, launches a missile and applies an aura. It also casts Cannonball (record #184168).

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.
