Call upon your Death Charger to break free of movement impairment effects.

For 10 sec, while upon your Death Charger your movement speed is increased by 100%, you cannot be slowed below 100% of normal speed, and you are immune to forced movement effects and knockbacks.

How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1941); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Death Charge is built from 12 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 172.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  4. Effect 4 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 100.
  5. Effect 5 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 100.
  6. Effect 6 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 487.
  7. Effect 7 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 191. Its base value is 100.
  8. Effect 8 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 147.
  9. Effect 9 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 485. Its base value is -100.
  10. Effect 10 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 305. Its base value is 100.
  11. Effect 11 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 312.
  12. Effect 12 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Death Charge.

What it does

Death Charge is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Death Charge (record #461461).

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.
