How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 556. Its base value is -1000.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 113. Its base value is -1000.

What it does

Blade Turning 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.

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.
