Suicide

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Instakill (effect type 1).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Suicide is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it kills the target outright 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.
