How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its base value is 104995 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 4 times over the full 4 sec (419980 base in total). It triggers Blade Dance.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26.

What it does

Blade Dance is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Blade Dance (record #104995).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
