Tooltip

Rips a hole in time and space, opening a random portal that damages your target:

Deals Shadow damage over 14 sec.

Deals Chaos damage over 6 sec.

Fires a Chaos Bolt, dealing (326.5% of Spell Power) Chaos damage. This Chaos Bolt always critically strikes and your critical strike chance increases its damage.

Generates 3 Soul Shard Fragments.

How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1630); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 24710.
  2. Effect 2 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is 3.

What it does

Dimensional Rift is a Fire, Nature, Frost, Shadow and Arcane spell with an instant cast and a range of 40 yards. When cast it restores a resource (base value 3).

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.
