Diseases a target for 50 Nature damage and an additional 50 damage over 10 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 3.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 50.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 10 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (50 base in total).

What it does

Blight is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 50) and applies an aura every 2 sec. The client files the whole spell under the infected mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
