How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Dark Expulsion is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 18. Its area radius is 100 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 6 per tick. Its area radius is 100 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (60 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Dark Expulsion is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 18) in a 100 yard radius, applies an aura in a 100 yard radius every 1 sec and kills the target outright. It stacks up to 99 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.
