Armageddon

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Instakill (effect type 1). Its base value is 1. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 8000. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Armageddon is a Fire spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it kills the target outright and deals Fire damage (base value 8000) in a 20 yard radius.

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.
