How it works

Empowered Whirling Corruption is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 12 times over the full 6 sec. It triggers Whirling Corruption.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50.

What it does

Empowered Whirling Corruption is a Shadow spell with a 2.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Whirling Corruption.

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.
