How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 196. Its base value is 10. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 45 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 6.7076 per tick. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 45 yards. It ticks every 3 sec, 10 times over the full 30 sec (67.08 base in total).

What it does

Noxious Breath is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 45 yard radius and applies an aura in a 45 yard radius every 3 sec. It stacks up to 6 times.

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.
