Collapsing Star

How it works

Collapsing Star is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 297.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Collapsing Star.

What it does

Collapsing Star is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Collapsing Star (record #1227349).

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.
