Spore Cloud

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4.5737 per tick. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 10 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (22.87 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 86, which the datamine does not name. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Spore Cloud is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius 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.
