How it works

Sand Breath is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 49.612. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is -100. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Sand Breath is an Arcane spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Arcane damage (base value 49.612) in a 20 yard radius and applies an aura in a 20 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the snared mechanic.

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.
