How it works

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

  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 7 per tick. Its area radius is 100 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (28 base in total).

What it does

Overload is a Shadow spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 10) in a 100 yard radius and applies an aura in a 100 yard radius every 2 sec.

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.
