Tooltip

Tethers the target to Nalak, inflicting Nature damage every 1 sec. and increased Nature damage if the target is far away.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 70 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 15 times over the full 15 sec. It triggers Lightning Tether.

What it does

Lightning Tether is a Nature spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), an 8 sec cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 70 yard radius every 1 sec. It also casts Lightning Tether (record #136350).
