Swipe your enemy, dealing 3.67945 Physical damage to all targets in front.

How it works

Swipe is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is Health Leech (effect type 9). Its base value is 3.6794. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 114, which the datamine does not name.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11. Its base value is 400.

What it does

Swipe is a Physical spell with a 0.8 sec cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it drains health from the target (base value 3.6794) in a 5 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.
