  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4.5 per tick. It applies the bleeding mechanic. It ticks every 1 sec, 7 times over the full 7 sec (31.5 base in total).

What it does

Pierce Armor is a Physical spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 7 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 40) and applies an aura with the bleeding mechanic every 1 sec. The client files the whole spell under the bleeding mechanic. It stacks up to 99 times.
