How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 4875. Its area radius is 200 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 1. Its area radius is 200 yards.

What it does

Calamity is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 4875) in a 200 yard radius and applies an aura in a 200 yard radius. It stacks up to 100 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
