How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 162, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Vindicaar Matrix Crystal.

What it does

Activating Specialization is a spell with a 5 sec cast and an unlimited range. It also casts Vindicaar Matrix Crystal.

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.
