Tooltip

Ansurek ascends to a permanent state of evolution, polluting her venom sacs with cosmic power. This ascension causes an explosion, inflicting 50 Shadow damage to all players.

How it works

Aphotic Communion is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 50. Its area radius is 50000 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Aphotic Communion.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Evaporate.

What it does

Aphotic Communion is a Shadow spell with a 20 sec cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 50) in a 50000 yard radius. It also casts Aphotic Communion (record #450020) and Evaporate.

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.
