Teleport behind target enemy, stunning them for 2 sec and applying to all nearby enemies.

Can only be cast while stealthed.

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 0.5 sec after it is cast. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Teleport (effect type 252). Its area radius is 5 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Blink Step.

What it does

Blink Step is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards, a 15 sec cooldown and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura and has a Teleport effect in a 5 yard radius. It also casts Blink Step (record #329749).

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.
