The Deathseeker Eye unleashes a blast of corrupting energy inflicting 22 Shadow damage to all players and increasing their Shadow damage taken by 20% for 1 min. This effect stacks.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 22. Its area radius is 200 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 20. Its area radius is 200 yards.

What it does

Suffering is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 1 min. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 22) in a 200 yard radius and applies an aura in a 200 yard radius. It stacks up to 99 times.

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.
