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.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 20 times over the full 10 sec. It triggers Flamethrower.

What it does

Flamethrower is a Fire spell with a 1 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 20 sec cooldown and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec. It also casts Flamethrower (record #463822).
