Lightning Whip

How it works

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

Lightning Whip is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 20. Its area radius is 200 yards. It triggers Lightning Whip.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 200 yards.

What it does

Lightning Whip is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 200 yards and a 6 sec cooldown. It also casts Lightning Whip (record #136846).

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.
