How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 13. Its base value is 300. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 18 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 14. Its base value is 600. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 18 yards.

What it does

Unstable Magic is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 min. When cast it applies an aura in an 18 yard radius.

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.
