ShadowTooltip
Fires a Black Arrow into the target, slowing the target's movement speed by 70%, causing 150 Shadow damage and draining 150 mana over 30 sec.
How it works
Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Black Arrow is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -70.
- Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 10 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. It ticks every 2 sec, 15 times over the full 30 sec (150 base in total).
- Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 64. Its base value is 10 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 15 times over the full 30 sec (150 base in total).
What it does
Black Arrow is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 8-35 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 2 sec.
