How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 200. Its area radius is 6 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 25 per tick. It applies the bleeding mechanic. Its area radius is 6 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (100 base in total).

What it does

Bloodletting is a Physical spell with a 0.6 sec cast, a range of 8 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 200) in a 6 yard radius and applies an aura with the bleeding mechanic in a 6 yard radius every 2 sec.

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.
