The sha releases violent waves of energy, causing 142500 to 157500 damage to all enemies.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 142500. Its area radius is 1000 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 25. Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Insanity is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 142500) in a 1000 yard radius and applies an aura in a 300 yard radius. It stacks up to 10 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.
