How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 16650 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (83250 base in total).

What it does

Impale is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 1 sec.

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.
