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. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. It triggers Darkstrikes.

What it does

Darkstrikes is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 75 sec cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Darkstrikes (record #215659).

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.
