How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.

What it does

Shadowstep is a 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 5.5.4.70268. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 116 separate Spell records named "Shadowstep". This page is record #100546. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
