How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 1.6291 per tick. Its area radius is 3 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (16.29 base in total).

What it does

Torch is a Fire spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 3 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.
