Scorching Blast

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 2.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5 per tick. It ticks every 1.5 sec, 4 times over the full 6 sec (20 base in total).

What it does

Scorching Blast is a Fire spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 2) and applies an aura every 1.5 sec.

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.
