Tooltip

Consumes an enemy in flames, burning it and inflicting additional Fire damage every 2 sec. over 8 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 300.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 70. Its base value is 25 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (100 base in total).

What it does

Holy Fire is a Fire spell with a 5 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 300) and applies an aura every 2 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.
