Lava Cannon

Tooltip

Dorlita fires an orb of lava from her mech's cannon toward a random player. The orb inflicts 35 Fire damage and an additional 6 Fire damage every 2 sec to players in its path.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 35.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 6 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (30 base in total).

What it does

Lava Cannon is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 35) 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.
