Inflicts 8 Arcane damage to an enemy. The burn inflicts 4 Arcane damage every 1.5 sec and reduces movement speed by 50% for 9 sec.

How it works

Slow Burn is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 8.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4 per tick. It ticks every 1.5 sec, 6 times over the full 9 sec (24 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50.

What it does

Slow Burn is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 9 sec. When cast it deals Arcane damage (base value 8), applies an aura every 1.5 sec and applies an aura.

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.
