Desecration

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 89. Its base value is 5 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec.

What it does

Desecration is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 200 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 2 sec.

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.
