How it works

Volcano is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Volcano.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Volcano.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Volcano.
  4. Effect 4 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).

What it does

Volcano is a Fire spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 50 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it launches a missile and has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Volcano (record #252140) and Volcano (record #277004).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 13 separate Spell records named "Volcano". This page is record #277003. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page.
