Tooltip

Teleports the caster 20 yd. forward unless something is in the way. Also frees the caster from any bonds.

How it works

Each cast of Blink costs 75 Mana. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Blink is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Leap (effect type 29). Its area radius is 20 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.

What it does

Blink is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it leaps the caster up to 20 yards and applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70268. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
