Purge

How it works

Each cast of Purge costs 12000 Mana. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Purge is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 3500. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 40 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dispel (effect type 38). Its base value is 5. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 40 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 40 yards.

What it does

Purge is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 3500) in a 40 yard radius, dispels effects in a 40 yard radius and applies an aura in a 40 yard radius.

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 13 separate Spell records named "Purge". This page is record #25756. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page.
