How it works

Each cast of Flamestrike costs 260 Mana. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 549.616. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 105.246 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (420.98 base in total).

What it does

Flamestrike is a Fire spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 549.616) in a 5 yard radius and leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in a 5 yard radius every 2 sec.

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.
