Deals 33.3067 Shadow damage to all enemy players. In addition, the targets will take increasing Shadow damage per second. This effect is removed when the target has more than 90% health.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4.7581 per tick. Its area radius is 60 yards. It ticks every 1 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 33.3067. Its area radius is 60 yards.

What it does

Infest is a Shadow spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 60 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura in a 60 yard radius every 1 sec and deals Shadow damage (base value 33.3067) in a 60 yard radius.

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.
