Launches virulent spores, inflicting Nature damage, and creating Podlings and an area of overgrowth. Enemies in the overgrowth have their movement speed reduced by 40% and inflicts Nature damage every 0.5 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1.1711. Its area radius is 7 yards.

What it does

Overgrowth is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 24 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and deals Nature damage (base value 1.1711) in a 7 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.
