Tooltip

Burns 900 mana from those in the blast radius and does 50% of the mana drained in damage to the target. Also Silences targets in the blast for 5 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Power Burn (effect type 62). Its base value is 900. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 27. Its base value is 5. Its area radius is 5 yards.

What it does

Arcane Bomb is an Arcane spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 15 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it burns a resource on the target (base value 900) in a 5 yard radius and applies an aura in a 5 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the silenced mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
