Fiercely attacks with any available weapons, inflicting damage to targets of his target.

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 166187.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 1 sec, 3 times over the full 3 sec.

What it does

Decimate is a spell with a 0.5 sec cast, a range of 5 yards, a 10 sec cooldown and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 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.
