DruidTooltip
The enemy target is swarmed by insects, decreasing their chance to hit by 2% and causing 66 Nature damage over 12 sec.
How it works
Each cast of Insect Swarm costs 45 Mana. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Insect Swarm 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 11 per tick. It scales with 0.158 times spell power. It ticks every 2 sec, 6 times over the full 12 sec (66 base in total).
- Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is -2. It scales with 1 times spell power.
What it does
Insect Swarm is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec and applies an aura.
