Fires a shadow missile at a target, dealing 57.0972 Shadow damage to all enemies near the impact point and knocking them away. After impact, leaves an energy field that lingers for 20 sec, increasing magical damage dealt by 10%, increasing casting speed by 10%, reducing healing done by 75%, and reducing mana costs by 70%.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 10. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 136. Its base value is -75. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Shadow Crash is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius.

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.
