Cyclone

How it works

Cyclone is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Summon (effect type 28).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 167, which the datamine does not name.
  4. Effect 4 is effect type 90, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Cyclone is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it summons a creature and applies an aura.

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.
