How it works

Each cast of Crimson Tempest costs 60 Energy. Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown.

Crimson Tempest is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). It scales with 1.1 times attack power. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 2.
  3. Effect 3 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is 1.
  4. Effect 4 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Crimson Tempest is a Physical spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Physical damage in a 10 yard radius and restores a resource (base value 1).

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.
