Tooltip

Upon destruction, the Unstable Core inflicts 300 Physical damage and an additional 30 Physical damage every half-second for 3 sec to any players. This effect stacks. This damage cannot be avoided.

If no players are struck by this effect, the Gravitational Collapse hits all players.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 300. Its area radius is 8 yards. It triggers Unstable Core.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 30 per tick. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 6 times over the full 3 sec (180 base in total).

What it does

Gravitational Collapse is a Physical spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 300) in an 8 yard radius and applies an aura in an 8 yard radius every 0.5 sec. It also casts Unstable Core. It stacks up to 9 times.

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.
