Death KnightTooltip
Places a dark ward on an enemy that persists for 8 sec, triggering when the enemy next spends mana on a spell, and allowing the Death Knight to unleash an exact duplicate of that spell. Against nonplayers, only absorbs some harmful spells.
How it works
Each cast of Dark Simulacrum costs 20 Runic Power. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. The aura is spent after 1 procs.
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
What it does
Dark Simulacrum is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards, a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 8 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.
