Creates a violent storm in the target area causing Nature damage to enemies, and increasing the time between the attacks of enemies by 67%. Lasts 10 sec.

How it works

Hurricane is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 20 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is -67. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 100 per tick. It scales with 0.03 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (1000 base in total).

What it does

Hurricane is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 150 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius and leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius every 1 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.
