Modifier

Requirements

  • Serpent Sting learned; first recorded spellbook level 4.
  • Scorpid Sting learned; first recorded spellbook level 22.
  • Viper Sting learned; first recorded spellbook level 36.
  • Usable ranged weapon and ammunition; selected enemy 8–35 yards away. Viper Sting needs an enemy with Mana to drain.

Known limitations

  • Research only: not tested in the Forever client. Beta spell names, parser behaviour and requirements may change.
  • English spell names; check your spellbook and actual learned rank. Source IDs identify reference ranks, not a forced rank-1 cast.
  • Range, line of sight, resources, cooldowns and the global cooldown still apply. A macro does not detect readiness or choose your next combat action.
  • Only one Sting from you can remain on a given target in this source. A chosen unlearned or unusable Sting does not fall through to another.
  • Serpent damage can break crowd control. Scorpid is a hit-chance reduction here, not its Classic Strength/Agility effect.
  • Keep the listed modifier combination free of conflicting action-bar bindings. Each chosen spell requires its own keypress; this is not a sequence.

Notes

  • Researched 27 September 2026 against source beta build 1.60.1.70009. Spec lists are recommendations; actual learned spells and selected talents determine eligibility.
