The unit burrows, unleashing a barrage of subterranean attacks.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Burrow 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, 5 times over the full 5 sec. It triggers Burrow.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Burrow.

What it does

Burrow is a spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec. It also casts Burrow (record #129469) and Burrow (record #129474).

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.
