How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. The aura is spent after 3 procs.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is 6.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 107. Its base value is 5.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is -10.

What it does

Molten Core is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
