How it works

Soul Sever is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 75.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 15.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -70.

What it does

Soul Sever is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
