How it works

Grievous Wound is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 96, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5.5416 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 15 times over the full 15 sec (83.12 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 21.8305.

What it does

Grievous Wound is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and deals Physical damage (base value 21.8305).

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.
