How it works

Dark Transformation is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 1.

What it does

Dark Transformation is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it 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.
