Volatile Magic

Tooltip

Ivanyr marks several random players with Volatile Magic. After 6 sec., the magic explodes, inflicting 34.481 to all players.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Volatile Magic is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 100 yards. It ticks every 6 sec. It triggers Volatile Magic.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Volatile Magic is an Arcane spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 100 yard radius every 6 sec. It also casts Volatile Magic (record #196570).

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.
