Instantly removes all existing harmful spell effects, provides a brief moment of immunity against magical damage and harmful effects, and then reduces physical damage taken by 40% and causes you to resist all spells for 5 sec. Does not remove effects that prevent you from using Cloak of Shadows.
How it works
It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.
Cloak of Shadows is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 186. Its base value is -200.
- Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers spell id 35729.
- Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87.
What it does
Cloak of Shadows is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 5 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.
