How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.8 sec, 3 times over the full 2.4 sec. It triggers Heat Wave.

What it does

Heat Wave is a Fire spell with a 1 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2.4 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.8 sec. It also casts Heat Wave (record #185183).

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.
