How it works

Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 11.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 6.9871.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 101. Its base value is -75.

What it does

Shred is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 6.9871) and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the bleeding 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.
