How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 20 sec after it is cast. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Putrid Burst.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Darkmoon Deck: Putrescence On Cooldown.

What it does

Putrid Burst is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and a 90 sec cooldown. It also casts Putrid Burst (record #334058) and Darkmoon Deck: Putrescence On Cooldown.

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.
