Embrace of the Viper

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Embrace of the Viper is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 8. Its base value is 20 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (100 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 24. Its base value is 20 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (100 base in total).

What it does

Embrace of the Viper is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec.

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.
