How it works

Health Funnel costs 75 Health up front, then 75 Health every second it is kept up. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Health Funnel 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 200 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (2000 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 88. Its base value is -100.

What it does

Health Funnel is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec 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.
