How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 244064.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Desolate Path.

What it does

Desolate Gaze is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Desolate Path.

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.
