Fail

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 1000 yards. It ticks every 3 sec. It triggers Fail.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 260. Its area radius is 1000 yards.

What it does

Fail is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 1000 yard radius every 3 sec and applies an aura in a 1000 yard radius. It also casts Fail (record #261125).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 7 separate Spell records named "Fail". This page is record #261123. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page.
