How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 1. Its area radius is 25 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its base value is 3 per tick. It ticks every 0.2 sec, 20 times over the full 5 sec (60 base in total). It triggers Rapid Fire.

What it does

Rapid Fire is a spell with a 1.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.2 sec. It also casts Rapid Fire (record #287561).

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.
