The caster becomes visibly displaced from their current location and cannot be directly struck with attacks or spells. Damage taken from area of effect attacks will break this effect.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. It triggers Displacement Removal.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Displacement.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 103714. It triggers Shadowbat Cosmetic.

What it does

Displacement is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 1 min. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Displacement Removal, Displacement (record #103760) and Shadowbat Cosmetic.

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.
