Inflicts a Vile plague in targeted area, inflicting 50 damage for 6 sec. The plague causes the infected targets to vomit uncontrollably inflicting damage to nearby allies.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5. Its base value is 1. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Vile Gas is a Nature and Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura in an 8 yard radius.

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.
