How it works

Claws of Argus is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 1 sec, 15 times over the full 15 sec.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 86, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Claws of Argus is a spell with a 2 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec.

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.
