How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 2. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

What it does

Agony is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 18 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec. It stacks up to 10 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
