How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 13. Its base value is 1.0551. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 14. Its base value is 2.1102. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Unstable Magic is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 min. When cast it 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.
