Inflicts Fire damage to an enemy, then additional damage every 3 sec. for 12 sec.

How it works

Each cast of Pyroblast costs 130 Mana.

Pyroblast is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 160. It scales with 0.75 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 15 per tick. It scales with 0.05 times spell power. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec (60 base in total).

What it does

Pyroblast is a Fire spell with a 6 sec cast, a range of 35 yards and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 160) and applies an aura every 3 sec.

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.
