Each hit increases damage taken from Annihilation by 25% for 6 sec, stacking up to 20 times.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.2 sec, 20 times over the full 5 sec. It triggers Annihilation.

What it does

Annihilation is a Shadow spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.2 sec. It also casts Annihilation (record #307421).
