Smoke Bomb

Tooltip

Creates a cloud of thick smoke in an 8 yard radius around the caster for 5 sec. Enemies are unable to target into or out of the smoke cloud.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 4. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 10 times over the full 5 sec.

What it does

Smoke Bomb is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius and applies an aura every 0.5 sec.

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.
