Tooltip

The caster hurls a rock of molten lava at a random enemy. When it lands a volcano forms that will inflict Fire damage to all enemies within its confines.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Summon Object (effect type 50).

What it does

Volcano is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and summons an object.

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.
