How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 7.3448. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4.197 per tick. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards. It ticks every 3 sec, 10 times over the full 30 sec (41.97 base in total).

What it does

Fire Storm is a Fire spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 7.3448) in a 5 yard radius and leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 5 yard radius every 3 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.
