Inflicts normal damage plus 24375 to 25625 bleed damage every 2 second. This effect stacks.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 39000 per tick. It applies the bleeding mechanic. It ticks every 2 sec, 20 times over the full 40 sec (780000 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 100.

What it does

Impale is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 40 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the bleeding mechanic every 2 sec and deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 100). It stacks up to 30 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.
