Decimation

Tooltip

Hurls fel energy at random enemies that places an aura on the targets. When the aura expires, the enemy destination is bombarded with missiles, inflicting 447.805 Fire damage to enemies and 11.1951 Fire damage to everyone.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 245770. Its area radius is 50000 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its area radius is 50000 yards.

What it does

Decimation is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 50000 yard radius.

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.
