How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 20. Its area radius is 4 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is -60. Its area radius is 4 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 80. Its area radius is 4 yards.
  4. Effect 4 is Summon (effect type 28).

What it does

Unleash Corruption is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 300 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 20) in a 4 yard radius, restores a resource (base value -60) in a 4 yard radius and summons a creature.

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.
