How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 75.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 193. Its base value is -5.

What it does

Atrophy is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 1 min. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 75) and applies an aura. 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.
