Tooltip

Stuns an enemy, but increases its armor by 30% for 8 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Petrify 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 101. Its base value is 30.

What it does

Petrify is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
