Tooltip

Applies an aura that will detonate if not reapplied or removed within 20 sec. Dissipates after 20 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 3 yards. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 40 times over the full 20 sec. It triggers spell id 30023.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 29947.

What it does

Flame Wreath is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 45 yards and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 3 yard radius every 0.5 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.
