Creeping Doom

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 160, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Creeping Doom.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Creeping Doom is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it kills the target outright. It also casts Creeping Doom (record #197506).

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.
