Tooltip

Inflicts 300% weapon damage and leaves the target wounded, reducing the effectiveness of any healing by 50% for 5 sec.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Mortal Strike is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 300.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 118. Its base value is -50.

What it does

Mortal Strike is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 300) 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.
