  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). Its base value is 1. Its area radius is 2 yards.

What it does

Suppressive Fire is a Fire spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 11) in a 2 yard radius and interrupts spellcasting in a 2 yard radius.

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.
