How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Chosen Identity is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Chosen Identity.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Chosen Identity.

What it does

Chosen Identity is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Chosen Identity (record #360022) and Chosen Identity (record #403617).

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.
