  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 68.0103. Its area radius is 300 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5 per tick. Its area radius is 300 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (50 base in total).

What it does

Shadow Bolt Volley is a Shadow spell with a 2.8 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 68.0103) in a 300 yard radius and applies an aura in a 300 yard radius every 1 sec.
