Petrification

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 136, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 5.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Accretion.

What it does

Petrification is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Accretion.

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 14 separate Spell records named "Petrification". This page is record #163809. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
