Infuses the caster with shadow magic, inflicting Shadow damage to nearby enemies every 1.5 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1.5 sec, 4 times over the full 6 sec. It triggers Shadow Eruption.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -70.

What it does

Shadow Infusion is a Shadow spell with a 4 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1.5 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Shadow Eruption.

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.
