Inflicts 12 Shadow damage and applies Annihilation every 0.3 sec.

How it works

Obliteration Beam is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 12 per tick. It ticks every 0.3 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 260.

What it does

Obliteration Beam is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura every 0.3 sec and 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.
