Open replacement for the SpellEffect.Effect field meanings in
Spell.dbc plus the engine's hard-coded effect dispatch table.
Defines what each spell-effect integer value actually does —
SCHOOL_DAMAGE=2 deals magical damage, DUMMY=3 is a script hook,
HEAL=10 restores health, ENERGIZE=30 restores power,
APPLY_AURA=6 attaches a buff/debuff, etc.
WotLK's Spell.dbc has 192+ effect type integers, each with its
own resolver in the spell engine. This catalog lets the engine
look up "given effect=10, what resolution behavior do I run?"
via a single table lookup instead of a hard-coded switch
statement, and lets server-custom spells reference new effect
IDs without touching engine code.
Ten effectKind values capture the major behavior families
(Damage / Heal / Aura / Energize / Trigger / Movement / Summon /
Dispel / Dummy / Misc), and a 6-bit behaviorFlags field
captures targeting/gating semantics:
- RequiresTarget — must have a target
- RequiresLineOfSight — LoS check on target
- IsHostileEffect — hostile only (PvP gating)
- IsBeneficialEffect — friendly only
- IgnoresImmunities — bypasses Bubble / IBF / etc
- TriggersGCD — counts toward GCD
Distinct from WAUR (Spell Aura Type, future format) which is the
secondary classification used when effectType is APPLY_AURA. The
two together cover the full spell-effect classification space.
Three preset emitters: --gen-sef (5 damage effects covering
typical Spell.dbc damage IDs), --gen-sef-healing (4 heal
effects all flagged IsBeneficialEffect), --gen-sef-aura (5
aura-application effects covering single-target / pet /
party-wide / area variants).
Validation enforces name presence, effectKind 0..9, no duplicate
ids; warns on:
- both Hostile and Beneficial flags set (engine picks Hostile,
contradiction suggests config bug)
- Damage kind without TriggersGCD (most damage should be on GCD
— env damage is the canonical exception)
- Heal kind without IsBeneficialEffect (engine treats heal as
ungated, may damage enemies)
Wired through the cross-format table; WSEF appears automatically
in all 15 cross-format utilities. Format count 81 -> 82; CLI flag
count 989 -> 994.
