Fire Wave is a fire-based wave spell in the standard spellbook, requiring level 75 Magic to cast. As an offensive combat spell it can only be cast on attackable NPCs, or other players in a PvP situation.

It is the second-strongest fire spell in the game, with the strongest being Fire Surge.

Damage

Fire Wave has a base maximum hit of 20. As with all combat spells, this maximum hit is increased based on the player's magic damage bonus.

As a fire-based spell, Fire Wave's maximum hit is also increased against targets that are weak to fire.
