How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. It ticks every 1 sec, 6 times over the full 6 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 20. It applies the snared mechanic.

What it does

Nightmare Essence is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura with the snared mechanic.

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.
