How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 200 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 61, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Decimate is a Nature spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
