How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Dual Wield is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dual Wield (effect type 40).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is 20.

What it does

Dual Wield is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it has a Dual Wield effect and 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.
