How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 22.

What it does

Wound is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage and 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.
