Burns the enemy for Arcane damage and inflicts additional damage over 12 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 175 per tick. It scales with 0.13 times spell power. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec (700 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 75.

What it does

Moonfire is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards, a 2 sec cooldown and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec and deals Arcane damage (base value 75).

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.
