Avenging Wrath

Tooltip

Increases all damage and healing caused by 20% for 20 sec. Causes Forbearance and cannot be used while Forebearance is active.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Avenging Wrath is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 20.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 136. Its base value is 20.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 142, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Forbearance.

What it does

Avenging Wrath is a Holy spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 3 min cooldown and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Forbearance.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
