Tooltip

Reanimates a nearby corpse, summoning a zombie for 20 sec that slowly moves towards your target.

If your zombie reaches its target, it explodes after 3.1 sec. The explosion stuns all enemies for 3 sec and deals 10% of their health in Shadow damage.

How it works

Each cast of Zombify costs 30 Runic Power. It works on charges (charge category 2176); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Summon (effect type 28). Its base value is 5. Its area radius is 25 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 30.

What it does

Zombify is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it summons a creature in a 25 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.
