Summons an Infernal from the Twisting Nether, impacting for (60% of Spell Power) Fire damage and stunning all enemies in the area for 2 sec.

The Infernal will serve you for 30 sec, dealing damage to all nearby enemies every 2 sec and generating 1 Soul Shard Fragment every 1 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Summon (effect type 28). Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). Its area radius is 10 yards. It triggers Infernal Awakening.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 148, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 1. It triggers Summon Infernal.

What it does

Summon Infernal is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards, a 2 min cooldown and effects that last 0.2 sec. When cast it summons a creature and launches a missile in a 10 yard radius. It also casts Infernal Awakening and Summon Infernal (record #111685).

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.
