How it works

Spiteful Assault is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Teleport (effect type 252). Its area radius is 15 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.

What it does

Spiteful Assault is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 0.1 sec. When cast it has a Teleport effect in a 15 yard radius and 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.
