Shadow Barrage

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 6.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 2 times over the full 4 sec (10 base in total).

What it does

Shadow Barrage is a Shadow spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 6) and applies an aura every 2 sec.

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.
