Tooltip

A wave of flame radiates outward from the caster, damaging all enemies within 10 yards the blast for 8721 to 10279 Fire damage, knocking them back and dazing them for 6 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 8721. It scales with 0.193 times spell power. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. It applies the snared mechanic. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 160. Its area radius is 16 yards.

What it does

Flame Wave is a Fire spell with a 2.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 8721) in a 10 yard radius, applies an aura with the snared mechanic in a 10 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 16 yard radius.

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.
