Tooltip

Calls down a meteor which lands at the target location after 3 sec, dealing (900% of Spell Power) Fire damage to all enemies, and burns the ground, dealing Fire damage over 4 sec to all enemies in the area.

The enemy closest to the center of the Meteor's impact takes 75% increased damage. Damage reduced beyond 8 targets.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Meteor Burn.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). Its area radius is 8 yards. It triggers Meteor.

What it does

Meteor is a Fire spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it launches a missile and launches a missile in an 8 yard radius. It also casts Meteor Burn and Meteor (record #351140).

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.
