Burns the enemy for 8 Arcane damage and then an additional 12 Arcane damage over 9 sec.
How it works
Each cast of Moonfire costs 25 Mana. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.
Moonfire is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4 per tick. It scales with 0.13 times spell power. It ticks every 3 sec, 3 times over the full 9 sec (12 base in total).
- Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 8. It scales with 0.15 times spell power.
What it does
Moonfire is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 9 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec and deals Arcane damage (base value 8).
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.
