How it works

Apocalypse is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). It scales with 3 times attack power.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 2.

What it does

Apocalypse is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and a 45 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Shadow damage.

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.
