How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 4.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 2 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 4 times over the full 4 sec (8 base in total).

What it does

Soul Rot is a Shadow spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 4) and applies an aura every 1 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.
