Krosus lobs an orb of fel energy at a target that impacts after 5 sec inflicting 335.854 Fire damage. Allies farther from the impact take less damage.

How it works

Orb of Destruction is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 5 sec. It triggers Orb of Destruction.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 25.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 50.

What it does

Orb of Destruction is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 200 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 5 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Orb of Destruction (record #205348).

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.
