Poison Bolt

Tooltip

Shoots poison at an enemy, inflicting Nature damage, then additional damage every 1 sec. for 10 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 4. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Poison Bolt is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 3000. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 500 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (5000 base in total).

What it does

Poison Bolt is a Nature spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 3000) and applies an aura every 1 sec. It stacks up to 3 times.

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.
