Impale

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.

What it does

Impale is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 0.5 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
