How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 35. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 6 yards. It triggers Descent.

What it does

Descent is a Physical spell with an instant cast and a range of 200 yards. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 35) in a 5 yard radius. It also casts Descent (record #342919).

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.
