  2. Effect 2 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  3. Effect 3 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  4. Effect 4 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  5. Effect 5 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Dark Discharge.
  6. Effect 6 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Fiery Phlegm.
  7. Effect 7 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Salty Spittle.

What it does

Guardian's Breath is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 60 yards, a 3 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Dark Discharge, Fiery Phlegm and Salty Spittle.
