  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 25.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 332. Its base value is 120644.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 332. Its base value is 122121.
  5. Effect 5 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 332. Its base value is 127632.
  6. Effect 6 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 129249.
  7. Effect 7 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 101. Its base value is 100.

What it does

Shadowform is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. 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.
