Tooltip

Inflicts Shadow damage every 0.5 sec. for 4 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 8 times over the full 4 sec. It triggers Void Shards.

What it does

Void Shards is a Shadow spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec. It also casts Void Shards (record #175176).

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.
