How it works

Its dispel type is client id 4. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 24.806. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 24.806 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. It ticks every 4 sec, 2 times over the full 8 sec (49.61 base in total).

What it does

Poison Bolt is a Nature spell with a 2 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 24.806) and applies an aura every 4 sec. It stacks up to 3 times.

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.
