  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 3 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 8 times over the full 8 sec (24 base in total).

What it does

Poison Spit is a Nature spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 12) and applies an aura every 1 sec.
