Desolation

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. It applies the snared mechanic. It triggers Desolation.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. It triggers Desolation.

What it does

Desolation is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the snared mechanic and applies an aura. It also casts Desolation (record #310324).

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.
