Spiteful Assault

How it works

Spiteful Assault 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 0.4 sec, 12 times over the full 4.8 sec. It triggers Spiteful Assault.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 30.

What it does

Spiteful Assault is a Shadow spell with a 0.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 4.8 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.4 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Spiteful Assault (record #310315).

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.
