How it works

Its dispel type is client id 4.

Vile Breath is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30. Its area radius is 15 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4 per tick. Its area radius is 15 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (20 base in total).

What it does

Vile Breath is a Nature spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 30) in a 15 yard radius and applies an aura in a 15 yard radius every 2 sec.

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.
