Tooltip

Purges the enemy target, removing 1 magic effects. Also slows movement speed by 20%.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dispel (effect type 38). Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -20.

What it does

Purge is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it dispels effects and applies an aura.

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.
