Arthas corrupts the ground beneath players, inflicting 10 Shadow damage every 1 sec to those within. Defile grows in size whenever it inflicts damage to a player.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 260.

What it does

Defile is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 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.
