How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 99. Its base value is -15.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 124. Its base value is -15.

What it does

Cripple is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura.
