Attacking

How it works

Attacking is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Open Lock (effect type 33).
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 90, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Attacking is a spell with a 2 sec cast and a range of 5 yards. When cast it opens a lock.

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 32 separate Spell records named "Attacking". This page is record #79606. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
