How it works

Each cast of Control Undead costs 1 Runes. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Control Undead is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 6. Its base value is 38.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79.

What it does

Control Undead is a Shadow spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 5 min. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the charmed mechanic.

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.
