The Shaman transforms into a being of raw elemental energy for 15 sec.

Elemental:
While in the form of a Flame Ascendant, Lava Burst has no cooldown and Chain Lightning is empowered to become Lava Beam.

Enhancement:
While in the form of an Air Ascendant, auto-attacks and Stormstrike become Wind attacks, bypassing armor, and having a 30 yard range.

Restoration:
While in the form of a Water Ascendant, all healing done is duplicated and distributed evenly among nearby allies.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Ascendance is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and a 3 min cooldown.

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.
