How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.1 sec, 60 times over the full 6 sec. It triggers Unstable Energy.

What it does

Unstable Energy is an Arcane spell with a 1 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.1 sec. It also casts Unstable Energy (record #227532).

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.
