Calls down a pillar of fire, burning all enemies within the area for (195% of Spell Power) Fire damage. Deals reduced damage beyond 8 targets.

Leaves behind a patch of flames that burns enemies within it for Fire damage over 6 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). It scales with 1.95 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 8.

What it does

Flamestrike is a Fire spell with a 3.5 sec cast and a range of 40 yards. When cast it deals Fire damage in an 8 yard radius.

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.
