How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 3 sec, 5 times over the full 15 sec. It triggers Lightning Torrent.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 3 sec, 5 times over the full 15 sec. It triggers Lightning Torrent.

What it does

Lightning Torrent is a Nature spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec. It also casts Lightning Torrent (record #1214323).

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.
