Cyclone

Tooltip

Attacks nearby enemies in a whirlwind of steel that lasts 15 sec. and inflicts normal damage plus 50.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 2 sec. It triggers Cyclone.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -10. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is -9900.

What it does

Cyclone is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 45 yards, an 18 sec cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Cyclone (record #62633).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
