The caster channels to suppress a player for 8 sec, inflicting 0.75 Arcane damage every 0.5 sec and reducing their movement speed by 30%.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Suppression 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 0.75 per tick. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 16 times over the full 8 sec (12 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 30. It applies the snared mechanic.

What it does

Suppression is an Arcane spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec and applies an aura with the snared mechanic.

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.
