Shadowstep

Tooltip

Step through the shadows and appear behind a target. Movement speed is increased by 70% for 2 sec afterwards.

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Shadowstep.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 70.

What it does

Shadowstep is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 25 yards, a 24 sec cooldown and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Shadowstep (record #145425).

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 #145426. 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.
