Bite the enemy, causing 48 to 66 Shadow damage plus an additional 15% damage for each of your damage over time effects on the target.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 48. It scales with 0.429 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 15.

What it does

Shadow Bite is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and a 6 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 48).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 16 separate Spell records named "Shadow Bite". This page is record #54050. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
