How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Spawn (effect type 46).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69. Its base value is 1.

What it does

Black Blood is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it has a Spawn effect and applies an aura.

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.
