Attack

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec. It triggers Slash.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Attack is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 7 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Slash.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70531. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.

The game client stores 28 separate Spell records named "Attack". This page is record #75100. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
