Inhale, stoking your inner flame. Release to exhale, burning enemies in a cone in front of you for 15 Fire damage.

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 3 sec after it is cast. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Fire Breath is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 15. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 3 per tick. Its area radius is 30 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 6 times over the full 12 sec (18 base in total).

What it does

Fire Breath is a Fire spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 20 yards, a 13 sec cooldown and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 15) in a 30 yard radius and applies an aura in a 30 yard radius every 2 sec.

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.
