Decapitate

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 96684. Its area radius is 100 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 96493.

What it does

Decapitate is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and a 6 sec cooldown.

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.
