How it works

Each cast of Shadowburn costs 105 Mana. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 86. Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 87. It scales with 0.429 times spell power.

What it does

Shadowburn is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards, a 15 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura and deals Shadow damage (base value 87).
