How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 29250 per tick. It ticks every 0.2 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 150.

What it does

Swirl is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura every 0.2 sec and has a Knock Back effect.

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.
