Devouring Maw

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Devouring Maw is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 min. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and 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.
