How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 100 per tick. Its area radius is 15 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 8 times over the full 8 sec (800 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). Its base value is 84455. It triggers spell id 99383.

What it does

Searing Breath is a Fire spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 60 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 15 yard radius every 1 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.
