Inflicts 38 Nature damage to nearby enemies.

How it works

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 38. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards.

What it does

Aura of Rot is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and a 3 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 38) in a 5 yard radius.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70425. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
