How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 0.5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Firestorm.

What it does

Firestorm is a Fire spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it launches a missile. It also casts Firestorm (record #277972).

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.
