How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 40.4438 per tick. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (202.22 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 193. Its base value is -67. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Hurricane is a Nature spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius every 2 sec and leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius.

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.
