Worms its way into the target, inflicting 3 Nature damage every 1 sec. Upon expiration, two Devouring Maggots explode from the target, each with their own chance to become.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 3 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (30 base in total).

What it does

Infest is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec.

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.
