How it works

Embrace of the Void is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 118. Its base value is -100. Its area radius is 60 yards.

What it does

Embrace of the Void is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 200 yard radius and applies an aura in a 60 yard radius.

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.
