How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Essence of Gossamer is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 140.

What it does

Essence of Gossamer is a Holy spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 1 sec cooldown and effects that last 10 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.
