Devour Magic

Tooltip

Purges 1 beneficial magic from an enemy. If an effect is devoured, the caster gains 15% increased damage for 30 sec. This effect stacks.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 15.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 5.

What it does

Devour Magic is a Shadow spell with a 1 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It stacks up to 5 times.

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.
