Inflicts Physical damage to nearby enemies in front of the caster every 1 sec. for 5 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec. It triggers Carnage.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26.

What it does

Carnage is a spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 10 yards, a 3 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Carnage (record #175321).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 14 separate Spell records named "Carnage". This page is record #175315. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
