How it works

Its dispel type is client id 3. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 0.4 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 45 times over the full 45 sec (18 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 3.

What it does

Withering is a Nature spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 45 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. It stacks up to 10 times.

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.
