Fixates on a random player, attacking them until Taunted.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Fixate.
  2. Effect 2 is Teleport (effect type 252). Its area radius is 2 yards.

What it does

Shadowstep is a spell with an instant cast and an unlimited range. When cast it has a Teleport effect in a 2 yard radius. It also casts Fixate.

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.
