How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Shank is a spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
