Increases the damage of Curse of Agony, Corruption and Seed of Corruption by 2% and reduces the chance your helpful Affliction spells and damage over time effects will be dispelled by an additional 12%.

How it works

Contagion is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is 2. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is 2.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 107. Its base value is 12.

What it does

Contagion is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it applies an aura.

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.
