Lava Burst

Tooltip

Hurls molten lava at the target, dealing (181% of Spell Power) Fire damage. Lava Burst will always critically strike if the target is affected by Flame Shock and its damage is increased by your critical strike chance.

Generates 8 Maelstrom.

How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1536); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Lava Burst.
  2. Effect 2 is Energize (effect type 30).

What it does

Lava Burst is a Fire spell with a 2 sec cast and a range of 40 yards. When cast it launches a missile and restores a resource. It also casts Lava Burst (record #285452).

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.
