How it works

Each cast of Moonfire costs 95 Mana. Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 210.491 per tick. It scales with 0.13 times spell power. Its area radius is 15 yards. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec (841.96 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 467.758. It scales with 0.15 times spell power. Its area radius is 15 yards.

What it does

Moonfire is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 15 yard radius every 3 sec and deals Arcane damage (base value 467.758) in a 15 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.
