How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 15 sec after it is cast. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Stance of the Mountain is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 50.

What it does

Stance of the Mountain is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
