How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its base value is 64193 per tick. Its area radius is 500 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 9 times over the full 9 sec (577737 base in total). It triggers Searing Light.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. Its base value is 3500 per tick. Its area radius is 500 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 9 times over the full 9 sec (31500 base in total).

What it does

Searing Light is a Holy and Arcane spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 4 sec cooldown and effects that last 9 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 500 yard radius every 1 sec. It also casts Searing Light (record #65120).

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.
