Wounds the target's head, dealing 250 Physical damage, and increasing the casting time of all spells by 30% for 30 sec.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 250.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 65. Its base value is -30.

What it does

Brain Hacker is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 250) and applies an aura.

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.
