How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 576. Its base value is 1. 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.

What it does

Suppression 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.
