How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 4 sec after it is cast. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 900.

What it does

Death Coil is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 45 yards and an 8 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 900).

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.
